Synthro

Synthro’s BCEA Compliance Software is a web-based HR compliance tool for South African employers that need clear, defensible records for BCEA and labour-law processes.

Key capabilities include:

• Working-hours and overtime tracking that alerts managers when an employee exceeds 45 hours per week, helping employers identify overtime obligations early.
• Statutory leave calculations for annual, sick, and family-responsibility leave, using BCEA-aligned schedules and recordkeeping.
• Contract and onboarding documentation, including generating compliant employment contracts, capturing signatures with timestamps, and tracking probation periods with expiry warnings.
• Disciplinary and termination documentation, including records for warnings, performance improvement plans (PIPs), hearings, notice periods, final pay, and supporting documents such as medical certificates.

Available via Web (responsive web app/PWA usable on phone, tablet, and desktop).

Target users include South African businesses that must maintain employee working-time, leave, and employment records for potential labour inspections and CCMA proceedings.

What makes it notable in the South African market is its focus on producing an audit trail with timestamped HR actions and retaining records intended to support BCEA compliance and employer documentation needs over multi-year periods. Published pricing for the broader platform includes Basic (R49.99 per user/month for 1 to 15 employees), Premium (R199.99 per user/month for 16 to 50 employees), and Enterprise (custom).
