Why MENA manufacturers pick AttendUX

Built around how Manufacturing & Factories businesses actually operate — not bolted on as an afterthought.

ZKTeco face gates at entry

Install ZKTeco face terminals at factory gates (SpeedFace, SenseFace, SF800, G3). Workers check in once at gate, logged to AttendUX cloud via ADMS Push. 20+ models supported, no agent, 15-min setup per device.

Multi-shift + overnight + rotations

Morning + evening + night shifts natively supported. Overnight shift auto-calc with night premium per labor law. Rotation shifts (14/14, 28/28) for oil-adjacent plants. Shift templates clone/reuse across weeks.

Piece-rate payroll

Garment + textile + simple-assembly workers earn by piece count, not hourly. AttendUX supports piece-rate wage profiles — workers log output count per shift, system computes earnings, validates against minimum-wage floor per labor law.

Labour-accommodation attendance

Workers living in company-provided accommodation (common for 50+ worker factories) have attendance tracked at both accommodation ZKTeco (gate) + factory floor (ZKTeco or mobile). Reconciled on single timeline.

Multi-language worker UI

Arabic (Egyptian + MSA), English for managers, Urdu + Hindi + Tagalog + Bengali strings for blue-collar factory workers common across MENA. Face recognition + icons make the UI work regardless of literacy level.

Labor-law overtime engine

OT calculated per employee country: Egyptian 35/70/100%, Saudi 50%, UAE 25/50%, etc. Daily + weekly caps enforced to prevent illegal OT. Ramadan reduced-hours rule for Muslim employees applied automatically.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does AttendUX handle piece-rate payroll for textile and garment factories?

Yes. Piece-rate wage profiles let you pay by output count instead of hourly salary — common in Egyptian textile mills, garment assembly lines, and simple-component manufacturing. Workers log output per shift; AttendUX computes earnings × piece rate. Minimum-wage validation ensures piece-rate floor never falls below legal minimum per the applicable labor law.

Can I connect ZKTeco face terminals at factory gates?

Yes, natively via ADMS Push. 20+ ZKTeco models supported (SpeedFace, SenseFace, SF800, UA300, G3, F18, MB10). 15-minute setup per device — change device cloud settings to point at AttendUX. No agent, no middleware, no 3rd-party integration fees. Works at both factory gates and labour accommodation entry points simultaneously.

Does AttendUX handle overnight shifts and rotation shifts?

Yes. Overnight shifts (10pm-6am) auto-calculate with night-premium differential per country labor law (Egyptian 70% premium, UAE 50%). Rotation shifts (14 days on-site / 14 days leave, 28/28, custom cycles) are pre-built templates for petrochemical and oil-services contractors. Per-diem allowances tied to on-site cycles.

How does AttendUX handle multi-language workers (Urdu, Hindi, Tagalog, Bengali)?

Mobile app employee-facing strings (check-in prompts, leave labels, document categories) are available in Urdu, Hindi, Tagalog, and Bengali — common languages for blue-collar factory workers across UAE, Saudi, and Qatar. Full admin UI is Arabic + English only. Icons + face recognition make the daily check-in workflow work regardless of literacy level.

How much does AttendUX cost for a 300-worker MENA factory?

For 300 workers, AttendUX costs approximately: Egypt 60,000-120,000 EGP/year ($1,300-$2,500), Saudi/UAE/Gulf $9,000-$18,000/year, Iraq $5,400-$10,800/year. All include multi-shift, piece-rate, ZKTeco integration, mobile ESS, and country-specific overtime/social-insurance. No per-device fee, no setup fee, 7-day free trial.
