WPS 2.0 Salary File
Each worker's wage uses the official LMRA WPS 2.0 breakdown — Fixed Salary + Social Allowance + Variable Salary, auto-summing to the Total Salary (no deductions component). A HDR employer header (Commercial Registration, LMRA establishment ID, debit IBAN), one detail record per worker and a trailer with record count and total — all in BHD with three-decimal (fils) precision, ready for EMS portal upload.
CPR & IBAN Validation
The 9-digit Central Population Register number is validated with the Luhn check-digit algorithm, and every Bahraini IBAN (BH + bank code + account) is verified with the ISO 13616 mod-97 checksum before the file is generated.
GOSI Social Insurance
Social Insurance Organisation contributions for Bahraini nationals and expatriates, with an editable insurable-wage ceiling and fully configurable employer / employee rates per company.
Batches & One-Click Download
Salary batches with per-employee lines, GOSI breakdown and totals, a quick "New WPS Batch" wizard, and a single button to download the ready-to-upload SIF file.
Bring Your Own Key
The generated salary file is downloaded and uploaded through the EMS portal / your own bank channel or the Benefit portal using your registered employer credentials. The module never brokers government or bank access on your behalf.
Disclosure: This module generates the WPS salary file for upload through the EMS portal / your bank. It does not transmit data to the LMRA, GOSI or any bank directly, and is not certified or endorsed by the LMRA, GOSI, the Benefit Company or any bank. The exact EMS "Sample File" CSV column template is portal-gated — verify the generated file against the LMRA EMS sample CSV template, and confirm current GOSI rates, before upload.
