When most people think about airports, they picture planes taking off, ground staff guiding flights, or long immigration queues. But behind the scenes, there is an equally critical system ensuring that the thousands of people who keep airports running, from cleaners to ground crews to administrators, are managed efficiently. That system is payroll and HR. And in Kenya, FaidiHR is leading that transformation.
Why Airports Need Next-Level HR and Payroll
Airports are unlike ordinary workplaces. They run 24/7, with staff working in shifts across multiple departments. You will find cabin crew, security personnel, cargo handlers, cleaning teams, and administrative staff all clocking in at different times. Managing these teams is not just about attendance, it is about accuracy, compliance, and speed.
Traditional manual payroll processes often mean:
-
Errors in shift-based calculations (overtime, night allowances, weekend pay)
-
Delays in salary processing during peak travel seasons
-
Compliance headaches with regulators like KRA
-
Low staff morale when payslips do not match hours worked
This is where FaidiHR steps in.
