Introducing Monthly & Hourly Remuneration in Keka

Introduction

Keka now supports Monthly and Hourly Remuneration options, giving you more flexibility to define salaries based on your workforce needs. These new pay types are designed for organizations with short-term, part-time, or variable-hour employees, making payroll more accurate and efficient.

Why These New Remuneration Types?

Monthly Remuneration

• Best for short-term contracts, internships, or project-based roles.

• Provides clarity where an annual salary is unnecessary or confusing.

• Lets you directly define a monthly pay rate.
