Payslip Software for South Africa
Your employee worked the month. Pay day comes. You transfer the money. They ask: "Where is my payslip?" You have nothing to give them. Or you open a Word document, type in the numbers, save as PDF, email it. Their email bounces. You WhatsApp it manually. Next month, you do it all again.
The BCEA says every employer must give employees a payslip. Not because of paperwork. Because a payslip is proof. Proof that someone works, earns, and can walk into a bank and open an account.
A domestic worker, a shop assistant, a part-time gardener. They all deserve a proper payslip. It should not take you 20 minutes to make one.
