WPS (Wage Protection System)
A government system that checks salaries are paid on time and in full.
The Wage Protection System (WPS) is used in Saudi Arabia and the UAE to monitor that employees are paid on time and in full through the banking system. Employers submit salary data in a prescribed file format.
In practice
In Saudi Arabia, salary files go through the Mudad platform. In the UAE, employers submit a SIF file to meet MOHRE's requirements. HRPrimes prepares these files from approved payroll.
