Glyo
The platform, in full — for HR, payroll and IT

Everything HR and payroll needs, under one system.

Records, time, leave and pay stay connected, so a change in one place shows up everywhere it matters. This page is the detail behind the summary: the rules engine, every module, and how the data is secured.

The compliance backbone

The law is authored once. Every customer is compliant the same day.

Most HR software is a global product with a local skin, and you encode the rules yourself. Glyo keeps a central, version-controlled record of labour law and social security for each GCC country. When a rule changes, we update it once. No upgrade on your side, no re-entry, no waiting on IT.

1

The law changes

A rate, entitlement or holiday changes on a specific date.

2

Glyo updates the record once

The change is saved as a new version with its effective date.

3

Every company applies it

Leave, overtime, social security and settlements use the new rule from that date forward, with a full audit trail.

What the record covers today

Public holidays

Each country's official calendar, including the Islamic holidays, flows into attendance, leave, overtime and payroll.

Statutory leave

Annual, sick, maternity, Hajj, bereavement and more, with entitlements and eligibility set for each country.

Social security

Employee and employer shares for PIFSS, GOSI, GPSSA, GRSIA, SIO and SPF, versioned by effective date.

End-of-service

Gratuity under each country's labour law, including the resignation and termination scales.

Overtime

Statutory multipliers, night-hour premiums and notice periods, versioned by effective date.

Ramadan hours

The shortened working day applies to schedules and attendance automatically each year.

Disciplinary ladder

Misconduct categories and escalating penalties, with room for your own offences.

Licensed banks

Each country's banks pre-loaded for payroll accounts, so nobody types a bank code.

Official documents

National ID, passport, residency, commercial registry and more, with expiry tracking from day one.

Everything HR handles

One platform from first contract to final settlement.

Records, time, leave and pay stay connected, so a change in one place shows up everywhere it matters.

Core HR

A complete digital file for every employee, added through a guided wizard that never leaves half a record behind. Import hundreds of people from Excel or CSV after previewing the validation.

  • Org chart
  • Bulk import
  • Live end-of-service estimate
  • Multi-company

Time and attendance

Shifts, rosters and punch data feed overtime and payroll. The auto-roster builds a fair schedule in minutes, and nothing goes live until you approve the preview.

  • Auto-roster
  • Ramadan shifts
  • Overtime approvals
  • Background uploads

Leave

Employees apply through a guided form that routes to the right approver. Balances accrue automatically and each country's statutory leave types are already loaded.

  • Self-service
  • Accrual engine
  • Hajj eligibility
  • History import

Payroll

A guided run from scope to review, with proration, loans, bonuses and deductions. Approved runs are locked, and a correction creates a new traceable version.

  • Social security
  • Payslips
  • Bank file export
  • Split approvals

Approvals and discipline

One inbox for leave, overtime, deductions, bonuses and payroll. The disciplinary wizard picks the correct penalty from offence history and prints a bilingual notice for signature.

  • Approval chains
  • Escalation
  • Evidence attachments
  • Bilingual notices

Documents and letters

Ten standard letter templates ship ready, with your letterhead and signatory. Every letter gets a reference number and can be reissued identically years later. The expiry dashboard lists everything about to lapse.

  • Salary certificates
  • NOCs
  • Expiry dashboard
  • Reference numbers

Communication

Announcements, notifications and reminders reach people in their own language by in-app inbox, email, SMS or WhatsApp. A daily sweep sends expiry notices at 30, 14, 7 and 0 days.

  • WhatsApp and SMS

Security and privacy

Sensitive data, protected at every layer.

HR holds the most private records in a company. Glyo isolates them per company and records every sensitive action.

Own database per company

Each company's data lives in its own database. A session for one company cannot reach another's data or the platform admin console.

Encrypted at rest

National ID, passport and IBAN are encrypted with a unique key per company. Reveal is masked and permission-gated.

Tamper-evident audit log

Every important action is written to a hash-chained log, so altering or deleting an entry is detectable.

Two-factor with step-up

Authenticator-app login and recovery codes, plus a fresh check before approving payroll or changing permissions.
