At the Barsus steel factory, employees have to enter their working hours on data input terminals and the job code for each project they work on. They enter the starting time and the time they stop working on each project. The international head office of Barsus receives the job-time data electronically every day.

Not all the divisions of Barsus are equipped with the electronic system; some of them still work with paper job-time tickets. These tickets are mailed weekly and scanned at the head office, where the data is stored digitally.

The payroll database is updated weekly based on the job-time tickets. All employees are paid electronically, therefore no checks are printed; instead, the payroll system deposits an employee’s net pay in the employee’s bank account. Payments are made to government tax bodies. All disbursements are accompanied by a report summarizing the disbursement. The system also produces pay stub data that is stored in a payroll transaction file that is accessible to employees over the internet. An electronic summary payroll report is created and sent to the payroll supervisor.
