HR and Payroll

Comarch ERP Optima HR and Payroll

The management of an HR and payroll department requires constant tracking of changes to labor and social insurance law. 

Thanks to regular updates provided by Comarch experts which take into account all such modifications, the HR and Payroll module guarantees an immediate reaction to changing requirements.

The application effectively supports HR and payroll services in each company.

The module is fully integrated with the Polish program Płatnik, enabling the user to send insurance documents to the social insurance institution (ZUS).
