Construction HR runs across sites, shifts, and contractor relationships. Most software handles one of those.

Construction and infrastructure HR has a complexity that most HR platforms were not designed for. Your workforce moves between project sites. Daily wage workers arrive in batches and leave when a phase ends. Contractor crews come in under CLRA arrangements that create their own compliance trail.

And all of this happens across states, with different PT rates, LWF rules, and Factories Act obligations applying at each site.

SatinHR brings it into one system. Biometric and kiosk-based attendance at the site level, daily wage payroll calculated from verified attendance, contract labour managed with CLRA compliance, and multi-state statutory obligations applied per location automatically.

Here's what that means in practice: your site HR does not spend the last week of every month reconciling attendance records from three sources before payroll can run. The data flows from the site to payroll without a manual step in between.

How SatinHR Works for Construction & Infrastructure

HR that follows your workforce from site to site

Site-based attendance without office infrastructure

Biometric and facial recognition clock-in at construction sites, with kiosk mode for sites without reliable internet or smartphone access. Attendance tracked per worker, per site, per day. Data syncs to payroll without manual export.

Daily wage payroll across project phases

Daily wage workers paid from verified site attendance each cycle. Payroll for permanent staff, contract workers, and daily wage labour processed together, with no separate calculation for each worker type.

Contract labour management and CLRA compliance

Contract worker registration, principal employer obligations, and CLRA compliance managed within SatinHR. Contractor classification and statutory filings tracked alongside PF, ESI, and state-specific contributions.

Multi-site statutory compliance

PF, ESI, PT, TDS, LWF, Factories Act, and CLRA obligations managed across every project site. Multi-state rules applied automatically per location. Compliance registers maintained without manual site-by-site tracking.

Leave and attendance for a mobile workforce

Leave policies configured for site-based workers, including compensatory off, earned leave, and site-specific allowances. Overlap detection and coverage thresholds managed automatically so sites are never understaffed.

Workforce risk and attrition prediction

High-risk employees flagged up to 90 days before a resignation. For construction companies where skilled site supervisors and project managers are hard to replace mid-project, early attrition visibility reduces the risk of a critical gap opening at the wrong time.

New joiner provisioning

People data spread across HR spreadsheets, Finance files, and Operations trackers. Each team maintains its own version. When something changes, the update has to be made in three places.

Offer letters in email. Contracts in folders. Certifications on personal drives. No one knows what is current, what has lapsed, or what needs renewal until there is a problem.

HR managers and plant admins spend a significant portion of their day answering questions that a self-service system should handle: leave balances, payslip queries, policy rules, reporting structures.

A static chart maintained manually in PowerPoint or Excel. Outdated within weeks of any restructure, hire, or movement. HR knows the chart is wrong but has no time to keep it current.

IT, Finance, HR, and Admin each set up their own records separately. The process takes days and almost always produces discrepancies: wrong cost centre, missing policy assignment, missed access.

One employee profile with every field live and consistent across every module: contract type, plant, shift, pay grade, certifications. One update goes everywhere, instantly.

All documents stored, version-controlled, and tagged with expiry dates. Automated alerts reach the right person before a document lapses. Nothing falls through the gaps.

Employees check their own leave balances, download payslips, and find policy information without contacting HR. HR focuses on decisions, not data retrieval.

Org hierarchy updates automatically when employees join, move, or exit. Plant managers, cost centre heads, and reporting lines stay accurate without any manual effort.

One onboarding record triggers provisioning across every system on Day 1. The new joiner is live, accurate, and compliant before their first shift starts.
