Industry PayrollPayroll Software for Manufacturing Shifts, Overtime & Compliance
Factory payroll is attendance-heavy and compliance-heavy: shifts, overtime, ESI-covered workers, contract labour and registers. NexoraHRMS connects gate-machine attendance directly to salary and statutory files.

What Makes Payroll Different Here
Manufacturing payroll is the hardest for spreadsheets: hundreds of punches per person per month, shifts that cross midnight, contract workers, overtime approvals and several statutory filings, all with fixed deadlines.
Payroll Challenges and How NexoraHRMS Handles Them
Gate-machine attendance
Import the punch file from biometric machines, preview it, and load it into attendance. No retyping of in and out times.
Shifts and overtime
Shift roster, night shifts, grace minutes and approved overtime at your rate (set it to your legal and contract requirements).
ESI-covered workforce
Workers within the wage ceiling are picked up automatically with the employee and employer shares. ESI payroll.
Registers and bonus
Register of Wages, muster roll, leave ledger and statutory bonus calculator for audits and inspections.
Contract and daily workers
Daily, hourly and weekly pay types with wage runs and bank files for contractors' staff.
Minimum wages and LWF
Check pay against minimum wages and track Labour Welfare Fund by state.
From Gate Punch to Salary Slip
The monthly cycle for a factory: import punches, review the attendance exceptions (missing check-outs, corrections), approve overtime, run payroll with the pre-check, lock the month, and then generate the bank file, ESI challan and PF ECR. The step-by-step screen keeps the order.
Because loss of pay, weekly offs, holidays and overtime come from attendance, payroll no longer depends on an HR person re-entering a muster roll into Excel.
- Biometric punch-file import
- Attendance exceptions list before payroll
- Overtime approval workflow
- Bank file and statutory files from the same month
