Comprehensive pay rate management

Set individual compensation rates and automate accurate payroll calculations

Individual pay rates

Set custom hourly rates for each team member based on their role, experience, and performance. Support different rate structures including hourly, salary, and project-based compensation.

Automated calculations

Eliminate manual payroll errors with automatic earnings calculations based on precise time tracking. Generate accurate payment amounts for every pay period.

Why are automated pay rate calculations more accurate than manual methods?

Manual payroll calculations typically contain 15-25% errors due to miscalculations, missed overtime, and data entry mistakes. Automated systems eliminate human error completely.

Traqq’s pay rate system uses exact time tracking data to calculate earnings. Every minute worked is captured and applied to the correct hourly rate without estimation or guesswork.

Overtime calculations happen automatically when employees exceed configured thresholds. This ensures compliance with labor laws and prevents underpayment of overtime wages.
