450+ employees, zero delays: Learn how Star Cement perfected payroll
Managing a distributed workforce across multiple sites wasn’t easy for Star Cement’s HR team. Errors in attendance tracking, last-minute corrections, and compliance with GCC regulations led to delays in payroll processing and operational inefficiencies. By implementing Keka, they automated attendance tracking, eliminated manual errors, and streamlined payroll. The result? A 50% reduction in payroll processing time, timely salary disbursals for 450+ employees, and full compliance with regional regulations. This transformation made HR processes simpler, faster, and more reliable, empowering the team to focus on strategic priorities.

With our previous system, last-minute attendance requests were a constant issue, causing delays in payroll processing. With Keka, we’ve seen a remarkable shift—employees are now more proactive and self-accountable, raising requests well in advance through the portal. Combined with the automated payroll calculations, this has reduced processing time by nearly 50%, ensuring payroll is always processed on schedule. Keka has truly transformed the way we manage payroll.
The big impact
- Employees independently resolved attendance and leave queries using Keka’s self-service features, reducing last-minute disruptions.
- Real-time dashboards provided HRs with accurate, up-to-date data on attendance and leave, enabling proactive decisions and minimizing payroll errors.
- Keka’s platform ensured seamless compliance with GCC payroll regulations, reducing the risk of penalties.
