Core HR & Employee Management
Manages the foundational workforce data, including user profiles, job titles, bulk data actions, and employee onboarding/admission requests.
Specialized Payroll & Compliance
Handles localized payroll processing, custom allowances, and deductions (including P9 Forms and Helb calculations), as well as employee self-service payslip access.
Time, Attendance & Location Tracking
Tracks physical clock-ins/outs, utilizes a branch locator for location validation, and provides attendance insights.
Leave Management
End-to-end workflow for staff to apply for leave, managers to approve requests, and a centralized leave overview calendar.
Offboarding & Terminations
Manages employee exits, termination requests, historical records for former employees, and formal disciplinary actions.
Performance & Appraisal
KPI/OKR tracking, structured appraisal cycles, peer reviews, and performance analytics to align output with company goals.
Workshift Management
Roster scheduling for complex shift patterns, shift-swap requests, and automatic overtime/shift differential calculations feeding into payroll.
Projects & Tasks
Tracks time and productivity by linking task assignments and project hours directly to employee profiles and timesheets.
Overarching Engine: Integrations, Analytics & Reporting
Tying all modules together is your reporting system (generating PDF, CSV, and Branch Reports) and data insights (such as Attrition & Retention monitoring), alongside integration webhooks to connect your modules to external hardware, accounting ERPs, or communications tools like Slack, Teams, and WhatsApp.
Testimonials
What our clients say
"To be honest, running payroll for a retail business with constant mid-month changes was a nightmare. StepUp sorted that out. No more endless spreadsheets and manual tax calculations."
HR Manager
Newark Frontiers
"Our staff love that they can just download their payslips and P9 forms directly from their phones instead of calling finance every month. It cuts out a huge amount of back-and-forth."
HR Manager
Goldstep Capital
"Honestly, managing driver allowances and trip-based overtime used to take us days. StepUp's shift rules and automatic tax updates (especially HELB and NSSF changes) saved our finance team a lot of headaches."
Head of Human Resources
Safari Logistics
"We have over 800 greenhouse staff clocking in daily in Naivasha. The branch locator on the app works perfectly—it put a stop to buddy-clocking since they have to be physically on-site."
HR & Operations Director
Rift Valley Floriculture
"We wanted an easy tool to onboard new software engineers and run team appraisals in Kilimani without it feeling like a chore. StepUp does exactly that with zero fuss."
People & Culture Lead
Kilimani Tech Hub
"Our branch employees in Mombasa and Eldoret retrieve their compliance documents directly on their phones. It makes our HR department look very professional and organized."
Human Resources Manager
Westlands Retail Group
"Running a 24-hour hotel shift roster used to keep me up at night. StepUp handles our custom shift swaps easily, and the overtime calculations plug straight into our monthly pay run."
Group HR Manager
Boma Hospitality
"The bulk upload tool works without throwing errors, which has made our seasonal hiring in Kericho very quick. It is by far the most reliable payroll system we have used."
General Manager, HR
Highland Tea Estates
"For our clinics, keeping shifts covered while doctors apply for leave is a major challenge. The live calendar and department filters keep us from having empty shifts."
Director of HR & Administration
Nairobi Medical Services
"We needed to know if our building site hours matched what we were paying. Linking site timesheets directly to payroll has given our managers real-time cost tracking."
Chief HR Officer
Apex Construction
"The automated final dues and statutory calculations are a life saver. The system handles NSSF tier changes and Housing Levy automatically, so we are always KRA compliant."
Head of People Operations
Soko Fresh Distributors
"Disciplinary tracking and exit documentation can be a compliance risk. StepUp archives former employee records securely, meaning we always have clean history files if needed."
