Built for contractors & trades
The parts that matter most to you
Passport and permit expiry
Every foreign worker carries passport and work-permit dates with expiry warnings ahead of time, so renewals are planned instead of discovered.
Daily-rated and mixed pay
Daily-rated crew, monthly staff and allowances all run in the same payroll, each with the statutory treatment that applies to them.
Site hours into payroll
Timesheets capture what was actually worked against the schedule, and rest-day and public-holiday overtime follow the Employment Act multipliers.
Sensitive data stays local
Passport numbers, NRIC and bank details are encrypted on your own machine. No mandatory cloud, and nothing leaves the office unless you send it.

Questions people ask
Can Orbit HR pay daily-rated and monthly staff in one run?
Yes. Daily-rated crew, monthly staff and allowances all run in the same payroll, each with the statutory treatment that applies to them, so payroll stops being rebuilt from zero every month for a mixed workforce.
How does it handle foreign workers?
Every foreign worker carries passport and work-permit dates with expiry warnings ahead of time, so renewals are planned instead of discovered at an audit. Passport numbers, NRIC and bank details are encrypted on your own machine.
Does site overtime follow the Employment Act?
Yes. Timesheets capture what was actually worked against the schedule, and rest-day and public-holiday overtime are calculated at Employment Act 1955 multipliers, flowing straight into the payroll run instead of depending on whoever did the timesheet that week.
Does it work at a site office without internet?
Yes. Orbit HR is local-first and works fully offline on macOS and Windows, so payroll runs whether or not the site has a connection. It is a one-time RM 249.00 license covering unlimited employees, with no per-head fee.
