Overview

Payroll errors and compliance gaps are expensive — and entirely avoidable

Every month, thousands of Tanzanian businesses process payroll manually in Excel — recalculating PAYE bands, NSSF contributions, and SDL deductions by hand. Errors are common, audits are stressful, and the whole process takes days.

GLX HR & Payroll eliminates all of this. Configure your employee grades, allowances, and deductions once. Every month, the system calculates everything correctly, generates payslips, and disburses salaries via M-Pesa or bank transfer — all in a couple of hours.

Beyond payroll, the system manages the entire employee lifecycle: recruitment, onboarding, contracts, performance reviews, leave management, training, and offboarding. One system for everything HR.

Who It's For

Built for your role

HR Manager
The problem

Payroll takes 4 days every month — manually calculating PAYE in Excel, cross-referencing leave balances, and chasing managers for overtime approvals.

How it helps

Payroll runs in under 2 hours. All calculations are automatic, leave is already approved in the system, and overtime is logged by supervisors digitally.

Finance Director
The problem

We've had two TRA audits where our PAYE calculations were questioned. Preparing for audits takes weeks of paper gathering.

How it helps

Every payroll run generates a complete audit trail with statutory calculations. TRA returns are generated in the exact format required — audit-ready always.

Employee
The problem

I have to email HR every time I want a copy of my payslip or to check my leave balance. It takes days to get a response.

How it helps

The employee app gives instant access to all payslips, current leave balance, and allows leave applications that go to the manager for approval automatically.

CEO / MD
The problem

I have no visibility into our total HR costs by department. Payroll is a black box that HR runs every month.

How it helps

HR analytics dashboard shows payroll cost by department, headcount trends, leave utilization, and turnover rates — real-time visibility into your biggest expense.
