HCM software for Bahrain.

Yes. Social Insurance Organisation contributions are applied per employee each pay run, with nationals and expatriate staff handled under their respective rules.

Since 1 March 2024 the end-of-service benefit for expatriate employees is paid monthly into a fund administered by the Social Insurance Organisation, rather than settled as a lump sum when the employee leaves. The rate is lower for the first three years of service and higher afterwards. It is a payroll line every month now, not a provision to true up at exit.

The cost moved from the balance sheet into the pay run. Under the previous regime the liability accrued quietly and was settled on departure; now it leaves the business every month, and the split by length of service has to be applied per employee. Magnar applies the correct rate automatically from each employee's start date rather than relying on someone tracking the three-year boundary.

Yes. Nationality ratios are a live figure taken from the employee records payroll already runs on, so the Bahrainisation percentage is current rather than reassembled when a permit renewal is due.

Yes. Magnar is multi-company by design: unlimited legal entities, each with its own payroll calendar, statutory rules, approval workflows and data isolation, all administered from one system and reported on together.

Yes. The web application and the employee self-service mobile apps run in English, Arabic (full right-to-left) and Spanish, so each employee works in their own language while HR reports in one.

Yes. Magnar integrates natively with SAP Business One and posts to SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics and Odoo through the Integration Hub, so payroll journals reach the general ledger without re-keying.
