Solutions · Qatar
Run compliant Qatari payroll from day one. Generate WPS SIF files for the Wage Protection System, capture QID and IBAN details safely, calculate end-of-service gratuity per the Labour Law, and give employees an Arabic experience — all in one platform with hosting options that keep data close to home.
Why Qatar
Qatar payroll teams juggle WPS deadlines, gratuity calculations, and Arabic communications on top of everything else. WorkMind absorbs that complexity: statutory outputs are generated, IDs are validated, and Arabic-speaking employees get an app that reads the right way — while HR keeps a single system of record across your entities.
Built-in for Qatar
Not a bolt-on. Not a spreadsheet on the side. Country capabilities live inside the same payroll, HR and self-service that runs everything else.
Produce Wage Protection System SIF exports in the format Qatari banks and the Ministry of Labour require, with every employee validated before the file is written. Deadlines, cycles and re-generation are handled from the payroll run.
Qatar ID numbers and Qatari IBANs are validated on entry — no more failed WPS runs because a digit was wrong. Sensitive IDs are encrypted at rest and exposed only to roles that need them.
Gratuity is calculated automatically per Qatar Labour Law No. 14 of 2004 — three weeks of basic wage per year of service, prorated for partial years, with settings for eligibility and termination cause. Estimates surface in the employee app so there are no end-of-service surprises.
Annual leave, sick, Hajj, maternity, paternity and public-holiday policies pre-configured to Qatari labour law — with accruals, carry-over and eligibility rules that reflect years of service and employment status.
Every employee-facing screen — payslip, leave request, timesheet, self-service — is available in Arabic with proper right-to-left layout. Employees pick their language once; managers can operate in English while their team works in Arabic.
Choose hosting in the GCC region so employee data stays close to home — with the same audit logs, encryption, and role-based controls that back the rest of the platform. Deployment topology adapts to your data-residency policy without splitting the product.
How it fits your month
New joiners are added with Qatar ID, passport and IBAN details — each validated on save, encrypted at rest, and surfaced in Arabic or English for the employee.
Attendance from biometric devices and mobile check-ins, plus Qatar-labour-law leave, flow into the current payroll cycle — nothing to reconcile manually.
Close the cycle, review validations, and export the WPS SIF file for your Qatari bank in one action. Payslips land in the employee app, in Arabic or English.
When someone leaves, end-of-service gratuity, unused leave and final settlement are calculated to the day — with a full paper trail for audit.

Questions
Yes. Payroll runs export a Wage Protection System SIF file in the format required by Qatari banks and the Ministry of Labour. Employee records are validated (QID, IBAN, basic wage, allowances) before the file is written, so the run does not fail at the bank.
End-of-service gratuity is calculated per Qatar Labour Law No. 14 of 2004 — three weeks of basic wage for each year of continuous service, prorated for partial years. Cause-of-termination and eligibility rules are configurable, and estimates are visible to employees in self-service.
Yes. The employee app, payslips, leave requests, notifications and self-service screens are fully available in Arabic with right-to-left layout. Employees choose their preferred language once, and managers can continue operating in English.
GCC-region hosting is a deployment option for Qatari and wider Gulf customers who need data to stay close to home. The same product, security controls and audit trails apply — deployment topology adapts to your data-residency policy.
Yes. WorkMind is a multi-entity, multi-country payroll platform. You can run Qatari payroll on WPS while other GCC entities use their own local statutory rules — from one system, with consolidated reporting.
QID (and passport and visa) expiry dates are tracked per employee, with configurable reminders to HR and the employee before renewal is due. Reports surface everyone whose documents are due within the next 30, 60 or 90 days.
