Olloom HR
Hiring, attendance, leave, payroll and appraisals for the Maldives, in Dhivehi and English. Two editions: one built for island councils and the rules they work by, one for businesses and groups of companies. With a staff app for everyone and an AI agent that knows your workforce.
Your whole workforce, in one calm place.
[01]Capabilities
What it does.
An AI agent for HR
Ask about people, attendance, leave and pay in plain language. It checks the month before payroll and drafts what needs doing for you to approve.
A staff app for everyone
Check in, apply for leave, see payslips and ask questions, from Android, iOS or the web.
Attendance that never guesses
Fingerprint and face devices, phone check-in and split shifts. A day nothing explains waits for a person, never marked absent.
Payroll you can prove
Every line shows its units, rate and working. Checks before approval, versioned runs and payslips staff acknowledge.
Hiring and onboarding
Vacancies, applicants from application to offer, and onboarding checklists that turn a new hire into a productive one.
Performance appraisals
Appraisal cycles with goals, self-review, manager review and sign-off, kept on each person's record.
Announcements
Notices to everyone, a department or a single office, delivered to the staff app and confirmed as read.
Dhivehi and English
The whole system, from the staff app to payslips and reports, in Dhivehi, right to left, or in English. Each person chooses.
Two editions
One built for island councils and the regulations they follow, one for businesses and groups of companies.
[02]Editions
Two editions. One platform.
Island councils and businesses run on different rules. Olloom HR has an edition for each, on the same attendance, payroll, staff app and AI.
Olloom HR for Councils
Built around how island councils run and the regulations they follow. Council staff, councillors, revenue, wage, mosque, sports and WDC staff each get the right pay, on the right budget code.
- Eight staff categories, each with its own payroll run
- Funding sources and government budget codes on every pay line
- The civil service week, Sunday to Thursday, with every public holiday
- Overtime and late fines worked out to council rules, with ceilings per person
- A prayer register for mosque staff, with prayer times calculated for your island
- A wage register for hourly staff
- Filing reports with Prepared, Checked and Approved signature blocks
- Staff loans repaid from payroll automatically
- A full Dhivehi interface, right to left, with every name kept in Dhivehi and English
Olloom HR for Business
One company or a whole group, in a single interface. Switch between organisations or see them all at once, and move people between them without breaking a payroll.
- One employee record across the group, with each company's own rules, payroll and payslip branding
- View one organisation or all of them, with group headcount and pay reports
- Effective-dated transfers, prorated across both companies' payrolls
- One login for people who work at more than one company
- Resort service charge, shared by eligible days down to the last laari
- MVR and USD contracts, paid line by line
- Expatriate documents tracked to expiry: passport, work permit, quota, visa, medical and insurance
- Final settlements, salary advances and loans
- 8 roles and 109 permissions, including a recruitment-agency role that sees only expatriate documents
[03]AI agent
Ask your HR anything.
Olloom AI knows your people, shifts, leave and pay, and the rules you run them by. Ask in plain language, and let it check the month before you do.
- “Who is on leave next week?”, “Whose work permits expire this quarter?”, “Why is overtime up this month?”
- Checks attendance, overtime and pay before every run, and tells you what still needs a decision
- Explains any payslip line by line, to HR and to the person it belongs to
- Drafts approvals, reminders and letters, and never acts without a person's approval
- Respects roles and permissions, so everyone sees only what they should
- Staff can ask it too, from the staff app: “How much annual leave do I have left?”
[04]Staff app
HR in every pocket.
Every employee gets the Olloom HR staff app on Android, iOS or the web. The answers people used to queue at the HR desk for are now a tap away.
- Check in and out from the phone, inside a geofence you set, wherever there's no fingerprint reader
- An attendance calendar with every punch, late minute and overtime hour, and a way to flag a wrong day
- Leave balances and requests, half days included, with medical certificates straight from the camera
- Payslips line by line and as PDF, to acknowledge or dispute
- Overtime requests before or after the work, followed through to the decision
- Service charge statements, document expiry dates and salary certificates on request
- Announcements from management, confirmed as read
- Notifications when leave is approved, a payslip is ready or a document is about to expire
- In Dhivehi or English, whichever each person prefers
[05]Attendance
Attendance that never guesses.
Olloom HR reads fingerprint and face devices, and phones too. Every day is measured against the right shift, and a day nothing explains waits for a person instead of being marked absent.
- ZKTeco BioTime fingerprint and face devices, connected directly
- Shifts with grace, breaks, overnight and split duty, and weekly rosters you publish
- 14 day statuses, from present and late to missing punch and pending review
- Corrections approved by a second person, and adjustments with a reason and a before-and-after trail
- Overtime approved day by day, with public holiday and off-day premiums
- A month lock, so approved attendance stays approved
[06]Payroll
Payroll you can prove.
Attendance, leave, overtime, allowances, loans and pension flow into one run. Every figure shows its working, and nothing is paid until the checks pass and the right people approve.
- Allowances, deductions, overtime, late fines and loan repayments, prorated for joiners and leavers
- Every line records its units, rate and formula, and every recalculation is a new version you can compare
- Checks that hold a run until attendance, service charge and approvals are complete
- Approval in stages, with separation of duties enforced
- Pension for employee and employer, and employment income tax withheld for MIRA
- Payslips by PDF and email, in each company's own branding
- Salary files for BML and MIB, with anyone who can't be paid by transfer listed separately
[07]Hire to retire
From first interview to last day.
Olloom HR follows each person the whole way: the vacancy they applied for, their first week and, one day, their final settlement.
- Vacancy announcements in Dhivehi and English, with an online application form
- Applicants tracked from application to shortlist, interview and offer, with the panel's scores in one place
- An accepted offer becomes an employee record, with the contract, salary and bank details carried over
- Onboarding checklists for documents, equipment, accounts and introductions, with every task assigned
- Offboarding checklists for handovers and returned equipment, ending in the final settlement
[08]Performance appraisals
Appraisals that actually get done.
Set goals at the start of the year, review them through it, and close every appraisal on time. Olloom HR runs the cycle, reminds whoever owes a review, and keeps every result on the person's record.
- Appraisal cycles for the whole organisation, a department or a probation period
- Weighted goals and competencies, set by the manager and agreed with the employee
- Self-review, manager review and a second-level sign-off, each with comments
- Ratings on a scale you define, with the overall score worked out for you
- Mid-year check-ins and probation reviews, scheduled from each person's start date
- Staff complete their self-review and acknowledge the result from the staff app
- Reminders for every review still due, and a live view of where each department stands
- Results kept on each person's record, ready for promotions and salary reviews

[11]FAQ
Questions, answered.
Which edition is right for us?
If you're an island council, the Council edition: it's built around staff categories, funding sources, budget codes and the regulations councils follow. Everyone else, from a single shop to a resort group, uses the Business edition.
Can we manage several companies?
Yes. The Business edition runs one company or a whole group from one interface. Each company keeps its own rules, payroll and payslip branding, and you can work in one organisation or see them all at once.
Does it work with our fingerprint machines?
Olloom HR connects to ZKTeco BioTime fingerprint and face devices. Staff away from a device check in from the staff app, inside a geofence you set.
What can I ask the AI agent?
Anything about your workforce: who is on leave, whose documents are expiring, why overtime rose, or what is still blocking this month's payroll. It answers from your own records, and anything it prepares waits for your approval.
Is there an app for staff?
Yes. The staff app runs on Android, iOS and the web. Staff check in, see their attendance, apply for leave, read and acknowledge payslips, and ask the AI agent about their leave and pay.
Does it work in Dhivehi?
Yes. The whole interface, from the staff app to payslips and reports, works in Dhivehi, right to left, or in English. Each person chooses their own language, and names are kept in both.
Can it handle hiring and onboarding?
Yes. Publish vacancies with an online application form, track applicants to an offer, and turn the new hire into an employee record with an onboarding checklist. When someone leaves, an offboarding checklist leads to the final settlement.
How do performance appraisals work?
Start a cycle for the whole organisation, a department or a probation period. Managers set weighted goals with each person, staff complete their self-review in the staff app, and managers rate, comment and send each appraisal for sign-off. The overall score is worked out for you, and reminders chase every review still due.
Does it handle resort service charge?
Yes. Enter or import each outlet's collection, choose which days count, and Olloom HR shares it by eligible days or equally, down to the last laari, before payroll runs.
