Does HONO handle PAYE and KRA iTax?

Yes. PAYE is calculated with personal and NHIF relief applied, and P9, P10 and P10A files are generated in the format KRA iTax requires.

Does HONO handle HELB?

Yes. HELB loan deductions are processed inside payroll, with confirmation files generated for the Higher Education Loans Board.

Does the employee experience support Swahili?

Yes. Employee self-service, payslips, letters and notifications support English and can be extended to local languages such as Swahili on request. HR configuration remains in English so multi-country teams keep a shared operational language.

How long does a typical Kenya implementation take?

Most Kenya enterprises go live in a few weeks once policies, pay structures and employee data have been shared. Larger multi-entity rollouts are staged by legal entity so payroll never misses a cycle.
