EMPRESS HR · Payroll and tax
Payroll Software in Bangladesh
EMPRESS HR is payroll software made in Dhaka by Azolution Software & Engineers Ltd. It runs salary, bonus, income tax, loans and the provident fund in one system, for one company or for a group with many companies and locations. Groups such as Rahimafrooz, Meghna Group of Industries, Renata and Habib Bank Bangladesh use EMPRESS HR.
What payroll in EMPRESS HR covers
- Pay structure. A cost-to-company (CtC) policy with your own allowances and deductions, and grades that carry the CtC elements for gross pay.
- Income tax. Tax settings with exemptions and rebates, so each payslip shows the tax deducted for the month.
- Month-end process. Attendance, leave and overtime are closed first; salary and bonus are then processed from that data.
- Changes during the month. Joiners, transfers, promotions and increments wait in a pending list until payroll picks them up.
- Corrections. Month-end adjustments, negative salary, payroll blocking, rollback and re-generation when something must be done again.
- Payment. Payment approvals, bank instruction letters, and salary and bonus payment with a notification to each employee.
- Other payments. Allowances, incentives, leave encashment and conveyance.
- After payment. Payslips, loan and advance recovery, the salary and provident fund ledger, and final settlement for people who leave.
Payroll that starts from attendance
Payroll is only as correct as the attendance behind it. EMPRESS HR collects punches from access-control devices and from the Empress ESS mobile app, applies your shift and roster rules, and passes the result to payroll. Late arrival, short leave, forced leave deduction and overtime are calculated from the punches, not typed in by hand.

Provident fund, gratuity, loans and advances
Payroll posts the monthly provident fund contribution, the employee's and the company's, to the fund. Loans and advances are approved with a schedule and recovered from salary each month. The fund itself has its own module, with accounts, investments and profit distribution.

For groups with many companies
EMPRESS HR keeps a parent company, its child companies and their locations in one installation. Each company has its own pay policy, grades, holidays and approvers, and the group still sees one employee database.
Payslips on the phone
Employees open payslips, income tax and provident fund documents in the Empress ESS app on Android and iOS. They can also ask EMY, the AI HR assistant, about their own salary and leave in plain words.
