The reality

Tired of these HR headaches in your Mumbai plant?

Manufacturing HR runs on six things going wrong before lunch. factoHR is built around fixing exactly these.

Shift roster chaos

3 shifts × 200 workers = 600 punches a day. Manual rosters break on the second swap.

Contract labour blind spots

Two contractors, three vendors, who is the principal employer for which worker? Audit risk.

Biometric data silos

Punch machine A on shop floor, machine B at gate. Data never reconciles with payroll.

Factory inspector visits

Form Q, Form 25, muster roll, leave register. Half a day lost finding paperwork.

OT calculation errors

Different OT rates for day, night, Sundays, holidays. Spreadsheets miscalculate, employees push back.

Multi-site headcount

Plant in Wagle Estate, warehouse in Bhiwandi, HQ in Andheri. Headcount never matches HR vs Finance.

Common questions

Manufacturing FAQs

Does factoHR work for multi-plant manufacturing?

Yes. Multi-entity, multi-location and multi-shift are first-class concepts. Each plant has its own roster, biometric devices, statutory unit and reports, all rolled up to a single corporate dashboard.

How does the contract labour module help?

It tracks contract workers by vendor, validates wage parity against Maharashtra minimum wages, generates LWF + ESIC + PF coverage where applicable and produces CLRA Forms V, VI and VII for principal-employer compliance.

Does it support our existing biometric machines?

Yes. factoHR integrates with all major biometric brands (Realtime, Matrix, eSSL, ZKTeco) and reconciles punches from multiple devices into one attendance record per employee per shift.

How is OT computed for night shifts and Sundays?

OT rates configurable by day-type, shift-type and holiday status. Maharashtra Factories Act rates pre-loaded. Each calculation traceable in the employee payslip and auditor-ready report.

Is the system audit-ready for factory inspectors?

Yes. Form Q (annual return), Form 25 (muster roll), leave register and overtime register exportable in inspector-acceptable format with one click. Audit log of every change preserved for 7 years.
