The calendar days are calculated as: Pay/Days in the month x No. of days worked (date of joining or in case of unapproved/unpaid leaves)


Mode of Payment

Salaries are transferred directly to an employee’s designated bank account. The Accounts department will assist the employee in opening a bank account.


Pay Date

The pay date is usually the 1st (or even earlier than 1st) of every month under normal circumstances. However, under certain unavoidable circumstances, for instance, a glitch in online banking, force majeure, etc., the salaries can get delayed. In such a case, Human Resources or Accounts will announce & keep the employees updated.


Income Tax Deductions

All the calculations are made as per the prevailing tax by the Government of Pakistan; tax deductions are directly made from the salaries.
