Add Your First Employee

Navigate to Add Employee

From your dashboard, click "Employees" in the sidebar, then click the "Add Employee" button.

Basic Details

Enter the employee's full name, ID number (optional), and select their employment type. SA Wages Pro supports:

• Domestic Worker — cleaning, cooking, childcare in your home
• Farm Worker — agricultural employees
• General Worker — gardeners, drivers, security, maintenance
• Casual Worker — irregular or short-term work
• Part-Time Worker — regular but reduced hours
• Fixed-Term Contract — specific project or period

Pay Details

Select the pay type (daily, hourly, or monthly) and enter the rate. SA Wages Pro automatically checks this against the current minimum wage and alerts you if it's too low.

Set the work schedule — hours per day and which days the employee works. This is used for leave calculations, overtime, and payslip generation.

Additional Information

You can also add banking details, emergency contacts, and upload documents like ID copies. These can all be added later if you don't have them now.
