Payroll

Automated HR, 24/7.

Empower your employees with 24/7 access to payslips, IRP5 certificates, and personal information. This not only enhances their autonomy but also reduces the volume of queries directed to your HR department.

Every payslip request, leave query and 'can you resend my IRP5' lands on HR — and it adds up fast. Bluubin's employee self-service portal gives your team round-the-clock access to their own payslips, IRP5 certificates, leave and loan applications, and personal details.

Employees help themselves, update their own information and submit requests online, which cuts the admin flowing into HR and keeps your records accurate. It's employee self-service built into your payroll — not a separate system to log into.

Instant Access to Information

Employees can view and download their payslips, IRP5 certificates, and personal records at any time, from any device. No more HR fielding the same payslip request every month.

Staff Claims

Employees can submit claims and upload supporting documents anytime, anywhere, via the self-service portal. Claims can be reviewed, approved, or edited directly in the payroll software and seamlessly added to the employee's payslip with just a click.

Electronic Applications

Leave requests and staff loan applications are fully digitised, allowing employees to apply online at any time. They can easily track the status of their requests through the self-service portal, eliminating the need for manual forms.

Up-to-Date Information

Employees can update their personal details, such as phone numbers and addresses, directly through the portal. This keeps records accurate and frees up HR for more strategic tasks.

Company-Wide Leave Calendar

Your company leave calendar is automatically updated in the self-service portal, ensuring employees are always informed of available and upcoming leave.

Company Documents

Employees can access a library of important company documents, including forms, policies, and contracts, at their convenience, without needing assistance from HR.
