magWork · HRM & Payroll
Modern HR software for South African teams
Employees, leave, attendance, and payroll in one POPIA-aware platform.
From R249/mo · R2 490/yrOverview
Running HR on spreadsheets exposes you to compliance risk and wastes hours every month. magWork HRM centralises employee records, org structure, leave balances, attendance, and payroll preparation — built for South African labour practices.
Whether you are a 10-person startup in Stellenbosch or a 200-seat services firm in Sandton, your HR team gets one source of truth for people data with audit trails designed for POPIA accountability.
South African employers face unique labour requirements — annual leave, sick leave, family responsibility leave, and documentation for CCMA readiness. Magoven HRM stores contracts, policies, and disciplinary records in one secure place.
Payroll preparation exports integrate with how local accountants work: payslip PDFs, payment status tracking, and employee cost rollups by department. Self-service portals reduce HR inbox noise for leave requests and document downloads.
As you hire, org charts update automatically. Performance review cycles keep feedback documented — valuable for growing teams in Sandton, Stellenbosch, or remote-first companies across SAST time zones.
Why teams choose Magoven
Many international HR tools require costly modules for payroll exports. magWork bundles people operations with your CRM and finance data so headcount ties to revenue.
