EOBI, ESSI & FBR compliance, built into payroll — not bolted on
A payroll-headcount-vs-EOBI-headcount mismatch is the single most-cited compliance audit red flag for Pakistani SMEs — and most payroll software either ignores EOBI and ESSI entirely or leaves you tracking registration status in a separate spreadsheet. Vektis tracks both per employee, flags exactly who's missing, and calculates the resulting EOBI deduction automatically on every payroll run.

EOBI — Employees’ Old-Age Benefits InstitutionKnow who's registered before an auditor asks
Mark each employee’s EOBI registration status and number on their profile. Any active employee without it shows a visible flag on their profile and in the employee list, and the EOBI Compliance Report lists every one of them in a single view — including new hires, the highest-risk case, since they default to unregistered until someone updates the record.
Once an employee is marked registered, Vektis calculates their employee-side EOBI contribution automatically on every payroll run — a fixed amount (your configured rate, as a percentage of your configured minimum wage base), not a percentage of their actual salary, matching how EOBI actually works. It's itemized as its own line on the payslip, folds into the Deductions Report and Payroll Sheet automatically, and updates instantly if you revise the minimum wage or rate later.
ESSI, PESSI, SESSI & KP-ESSIProvincial social security, tracked the same way
ESSI and its provincial equivalents are employer-paid — there’s no employee-side deduction to compute. Vektis tracks registration status and number per employee exactly like EOBI, with its own ESSI Compliance Report, so "who's covered" is always one click away instead of a manual cross-check.
FBR Income TaxAlready covered on every payroll run
Every payslip also splits pay into Basic Salary and a tax-exempt Medical Allowance and withholds FBR income tax from the current salary tax slabs automatically. See how payroll calculation works →
Frequently Asked Questions
No — EOBI and ESSI registration still happens the normal way, through EOBI’s own portal or office and your province’s social security institution. What Vektis does is track which employees are registered and which aren’t, so nothing falls through the cracks, and automate the resulting payroll deduction once an employee is marked registered.
EOBI’s employee-side contribution is a fixed statutory amount — a percentage of the government-notified minimum wage, not a percentage of actual salary. Vektis stores your minimum wage base and employee contribution rate as editable settings (since the government revises the minimum wage periodically) and applies the deduction automatically to every registered employee’s payslip.
No — ESSI and its provincial equivalents (PESSI, SESSI, KP-ESSI) are employer-paid, so there’s no employee-side deduction to calculate. Vektis tracks registration status and gives you a dedicated compliance report, without touching anyone’s payslip.
Open the EOBI Compliance Report or the ESSI Compliance Report under Reports — each lists every active employee who isn’t yet marked registered, so you can close the gap before it becomes an audit finding.
