We walk through how your payroll app encodes EPF, SOCSO, EIS, PCB, and overtime rules — and where overrides or outdated tables quietly break compliance.
CogniConnect Digital
Payroll compliance review with clear findings you can act on
We examine payroll applications, analytical extracts, and financial audit trails so Malaysian employers can close gaps before regulators or auditors do.
What a review actually covers
Every engagement centres on payroll compliance: statutory contributions, leave and overtime calculations, and the application settings that produce those figures month after month.
Analytical sampling
Using app analytics extracts, we sample employees across grades, pay cycles, and locations to spot calculation drift that a single payslip check would miss.
Audit-ready evidence
Findings are tied to financial audit applications and supporting journals so finance and HR can answer questions with source records, not anecdotes.
Compliance reviews we deliver
Choose a focused check or a full payroll compliance review depending on how much scrutiny you need before year-end, an acquisition, or an internal audit.
