Factories & Manufacturing
HR software for manufacturing companies that manage factory floors, not just offices.
SatinHR is built for Indian manufacturers running daily wage payroll, contract workers, biometric attendance, shift rosters, and PF/ESI compliance across one plant or many.

Manufacturing HR is not like office HR. The tools should not be either.
A factory workforce is different in almost every way from the employees most HR software was designed for. You have workers who clock in at a gate, not a laptop. Payroll that runs on daily attendance, piece rates, and contractor terms, not just monthly salaries. Compliance obligations that span the Factories Act, CLRA, PF, ESI, and PT across states and sites.
Most HR platforms handle some of this. SatinHR was built for all of it. Biometric and facial recognition clock-in, kiosk mode for workers without smartphones, daily wage and piece-rate payroll, contract labour management, and India-specific compliance are built into the platform, not bolted on as workarounds.
In practical terms, that means fewer manual exports, fewer compliance gaps, and less time spent reconciling what the biometric recorded with what payroll processed.

How SatinHR Works for Manufacturers
Built around how a factory actually runs
Gate-to-payroll attendance
Biometric and facial recognition clock-in at the factory gate, with kiosk mode for workers who do not use smartphones. Attendance data syncs directly to payroll at the end of each day. Proxy punching and duplicate overtime entries are flagged automatically before they reach the payroll run.
Daily wage and piece-rate payroll
Payroll for permanent, contract, daily wage, and piece-rate workers calculated from verified attendance in the same run. No separate system for blue-collar and white-collar. No manual exports between attendance and payroll.
Shift scheduling for factory floors
AI builds shift rosters from headcount requirements, skill constraints, rest period rules, and overtime eligibility. Managers review and approve before publishing. No manual shift-by-shift planning.
Contract labour and CLRA compliance
Contract worker registration, contractor classification, and CLRA compliance managed within the platform. Statutory obligations for contract labour tracked alongside PF, ESI, PT, TDS, and LWF.
Multi-plant management
Every plant, every shift, every worker type managed from a single system. Attendance, payroll, compliance, and HR data consolidated across sites without manual inter-plant reconciliation.
Factory Act and statutory compliance
PF, ESI, PT, TDS, LWF, Factories Act, and CLRA compliance built in for every plant. Multi-state statutory rules handled automatically. Compliance registers and challans generated without manual data entry.

HR visibility
Workers clock in on a biometric device. Data exported manually to a spreadsheet, checked by HR, and then entered into payroll -- a process that takes days and introduces errors.
Daily wage and piece-rate calculations done in Excel after attendance is reconciled. Different process for contract and permanent workers, often in different systems.
Shift rosters built manually by supervisors, often without visibility into skills, rest periods, or OT eligibility. Last-minute changes handled by phone.
PF, ESI, and Factories Act obligations tracked in spreadsheets. Challans prepared manually each month. Multi-state rules managed plant by plant.
Contract worker attendance, payments, and CLRA obligations managed separately from permanent staff, often in a different system or with a third-party contractor.
Plant manager needs a report from HR to see headcount, attendance, or overtime data. Reports take time to compile and are often out of date by the time they arrive.
Biometric and facial recognition clock-in syncs directly to payroll. Proxy punching and duplicate OT flagged automatically. No manual export step.
Daily wage, piece-rate, contract, and permanent payroll calculated together in one run from verified attendance data.
AI builds shift rosters from headcount, skills, rest rules, and OT eligibility. Manager reviews and publishes. Changes tracked in the system.
PF, ESI, PT, LWF, Factories Act, and CLRA compliance handled automatically. Challans generated. Multi-state rules applied per plant without manual tracking.
Contract workers managed within the same platform as permanent staff. CLRA compliance, contractor classification, and payments in one system.
Plant manager sees operational data on login: real-time attendance, overtime, headcount, and compliance status, without waiting for HR to run a report.
