HR software in JAFZA
You run a trading house or distribution operation in JAFZA. Your teams work across multiple sites, your buyers search on mobile between ports, and your margins depend on systems that don't slow you down. Hubb People handles HR, payroll and free-zone compliance in one place.
HR software for JAFZA businesses
JAFZA operates at volume and speed across time zones. We build HR systems that work inside free-zone licensing rules, not against them. Your staff visas run through the zone authority. Your employment law sits outside emirate regulation. Your payroll deadlines don't move. We've built Hubb People for trading houses, logistics operators and re-exporters who need systems that keep pace with customs cycles and competitive margins.
Every project is a fixed quote with a clear timeline and clear milestones. You own the work and the accounts outright when we're done — no lock-in, and nothing you can't take with you.

Employee records and leave that fit free-zone operations
Your teams work shifts, handle on-site inspections, and move between warehouse locations. You need employee records that your staff can update themselves, leave balances that stay accurate across multiple sites, and approvals that don't bottleneck operations. Hubb People holds contracts, documents and personal details in one searchable place. Leave requests move through the approval chain in real time. Accrual runs automatically. Your team gets visibility into who's available, when, and whether cover is in place. No spreadsheets. No delays between shipments.
Payroll and gratuity accrual built for free-zone employment law
Free-zone staff work under a different legal regime from mainland employees. Gratuity calculation follows federal formula but your licensing sits with the zone authority, not the emirate. Hubb People runs payroll on schedule, calculates end-of-service gratuity accrual on the federal mechanism, and exports salary files for Wage Protection System bank uploads. You set the pay runs to match your cycle. The system handles deductions, keeps records for audits, and makes it clear what liability accrues each month. When staff leave, gratuity is calculated and ready. Compliance stays with your business, not lost in separate tools.
Performance, recruitment and cases in one platform
Hiring moves fast in JAFZA. You need vacancies posted, applicants tracked, and job descriptions linked to contracts without email ping-pong. Hubb People holds your recruitment pipeline from post to offer. Performance reviews, development plans and 360 feedback sit in the same system as your employee records. If you need to open a disciplinary case or investigate an issue, the full audit trail is there—no separate files, no lost emails. Reporting shows you headcount, turnover, performance trends and leave patterns across all your sites. Speed and compliance move together.
HR software in JAFZA — common questions
Does Hubb People handle free-zone staff visas and MOHRE portal filings?
No. Staff visas run through the zone authority, not MOHRE. We hold employee records and the data you need for visa sponsorship, but visa filing and work-permit administration sits outside the platform. You work with your zone licensing team on that.
How does payroll work if we employ staff under free-zone rules and mainland rules?
Hubb People runs payroll for both. You set up employees under their legal regime—free-zone or mainland. Gratuity accrues on the federal formula for both. Wage Protection System filings work the same way. The system keeps the records separate so compliance is clear.
Can we run multiple pay cycles across different sites?
Yes. You set up pay runs on your schedule. Different sites, different cycles, different currencies if needed. Each run is tracked separately. Payslips, exports and records stay organised by run, so audits are straightforward.
What happens if an employee moves between JAFZA and mainland employment?
You'd need to update their legal status in the system manually—we don't switch employment regimes automatically. Once updated, gratuity and payroll calculate under the new rules going forward. Historic records stay intact.
Does the system connect to our accounting software?
Hubb People exports payroll data and salary information files, but accounting-system integration sits outside the platform. You can export reports and feeds for manual entry or your accountant's workflow.
