Services Provided
The Challenge
A large hospitality company operating multiple hotel properties across Qatar needed to transition their entire 500-employee payroll to the government's Wage Protection System (WPS) after receiving a compliance notice from the Ministry of Labour. The company had employees across multiple pay grades, various allowance structures, and different bank accounts, making the WPS migration complex.
Our Solution
Conducted a full payroll audit to map all employee compensation structures, including basic salary, housing allowance, transportation allowance, and other contractual benefits against WPS reporting requirements.
Registered the company with the WPS portal and configured the employer profile, linking all establishment permits and QIDs for the entire workforce.
Coordinated with the company's bank to set up the WPS salary transfer file format, testing with pilot batches before full deployment.
Created a standardized payroll template that automatically generates WPS-compliant salary files, reducing the monthly processing from 3 days to 4 hours.
Trained the client's HR and finance teams on WPS reporting, dispute resolution procedures, and monthly compliance verification.
The Results
- Complete WPS registration and first salary disbursement completed within 4 weeks.
- All 500 employees received their salaries through WPS on time in the first month.
- Ministry of Labour compliance notice resolved with no penalties assessed.
- Monthly payroll processing time reduced from 3 days to 4 hours through automation.
