The system track foreign workers' permit expiry by means of the Work Permit Expiry report. As the worker's permit expiry is keyed into the system, the report can be derived when user ranged the report according to the specify expiry dates.

Yes you can. The system is calculation is based on the weekly minutes entered in the shift masters. 2640min or 44 hrs is the maximum stipulated calculation for the number of minutes/hours per week under the normal working hour’s section gazette under the Employment Act. If your company calculates payroll outside the stipulated guide, then you may change the total number of weekly minutes.

SmartHRMS caters from the very big to the very small enterprises. We used the latest Microsoft. Net technology with the robust SQL database to ensure that latency of the system is drastically cut down. We are very conscious of the load optimization of our server to ensure that there is no lax in accessing our system. Of course, the client's PC performance and the Internet's bandwidth do play a significant part in the performance of the application. 12)12)12)12) Wh Wh Wh Why is the Overtime in your Working Hours defined in 30 minutes setting?y is the Overtime in your Working Hours defined in 30 minutes setting?y is the Overtime in your Working Hours defined in 30 minutes setting?y is the Overtime in your Working Hours defined in 30 minutes setting?

Our OT tolerance is set at half an hour. Reason being the following:

1. Normally, workers will take an estimate of half an hour to pack and leave before punch card (drinks or go toilet). In many cases here, companies set the tolerance of half an hour as these are non work related matters.

2. Prorated calculation is based on 44 hrs per week or 2288 hrs per year. Calculation to the minutes will create a big problem because the per unit rate is no longer hours but minutes. Refer to the training, if a person is paid a basic of $1,000, then per hour (for prorated calculation is at 3 decimal place) is 5.244. If this is change to per minute then it will have to be to 6 decimal place at 0.087641. It will be very difficult to assimilate calculation, especially now when we have already achieve seamless integration with our time attendance machine (If you use the machine, then the working hours can be auto updated).

13)13)13)13) How do I do pro How do I do pro How do I do pro How do I do pro----rated calculation in the system? rated calculation in the system? rated calculation in the system? rated calculation in the system?

To determine prorated calculation, it is primary determine by the shift settings. For example, Worker A draws a $1,000/- monthly pay. He works from Monday to Friday from 9am - 6pm, with a lunch hr break, and on Saturday from 9am-2pm, also with 1 hr lunch break. Total hours work in the week is 44 hours, which is set as 2640 minutes in the shift settings. So the system will calculate per hour of worker A as $5.244 per hour.

So when this worker work from 1st to 6th October, which is a 5 day working day, he will get 40 hrs x 5.245 = $$208.33. This coincide with MOM pro-rated calculation, which formula is Monthly gross rate of pay1 * Total number of days the employee actually worked in that month3 ________________________________________ Total number of working days in that month2 = Salary (Which also gives you $208.33)

All you need to do is to specify which day this Worker start and end and the pro-rated calculation will be derived for you as stated in the attached.

14)14)14)14) Do the system auto calculate the contribution amount for the employees? Do the system auto calculate the contribution amount for the employees?

No. The administrator will key in the contribution amount at the human resource details. As mentioned, the contribution guidelines are mainly guidelines, and state the minimum contribution, so there is no stopping from your employee to contribute more. MBMF is the only COMPULSORY fund to deduct.

As for the other question about holiday falling on Sat or Sun, giving off day to staff, treatment may vary from company to company. The best way to handle this is to create a leave type call "Holiday Off Day". Since it is a company wide policy, you do not need to attach any policy to it. The Holiday Off day is controllable by allocation, so for example, if year 2007 has 3 Off days, then you just need to adjust accordingly. This can be adjusted at the beginning of the year for easy implementation.

Most systems in the market are not able to handle Bonus accrual because most companies give out bonus in Jan or Feb for the previous year. This would affect the IRAS submission. The good thing about our system is that the Bonus component is separate and is an effective date changeable. So for example, if the bonus for 2006 is declared in the month of Jan 2007, you can still process your bonus as part of Jan 2007 payroll. After this is completed, just edit the effective date back to Dec 2006. This component will then form part of the IRAS assessment for year 2006.
