Staff attendance and payroll for schools and colleges
Teachers, office staff, drivers and support staff all work to different days and rules. AiroHR keeps them in one place, from attendance and leave to salaries and statutory filing. It is built for your staff, not your students.
One system for every kind of staff
Set the rules once for each group of staff, and attendance, leave and salaries follow them.
Attendance in the staff room
Put an Android tablet running Airo Lens in the staff room. Staff look at it to punch in, with no register to sign.
Staff who are out and about
Drivers and staff on school trips can punch on the app with a selfie and GPS.
Alternate Saturdays
Build weekly-off patterns such as every Sunday plus the 2nd and 4th Saturday, and give each group of staff the right one.
Holidays by staff group
Add a holiday for one campus, department or designation, so teachers can be off while the office stays open.
Part-time and guest teachers
Pay by the hour from their punches, with the hours and rate shown as a line on the payslip.
Term contracts
Mark staff on term contracts as Fixed-Term Employees, and gratuity is worked out pro rata after one year of service.
Leave your way
Set your own leave types, paid or unpaid, and let staff apply and see their balance from the portal or app.
Salaries and compliance
PF, ESI, PT and TDS run with payroll, with bank files and payslips each month.
Letters
Appointment, increment and experience letters on your letterhead, signed online.
Setting up your school
Add your staff
Group them by campus, department and designation.
Set the rules
Choose weekly offs, holidays, leave types and shift timings for each group.
Staff use it daily
They punch in, apply for leave and see their payslips.
Payroll runs
Attendance, leave and loans flow into salaries at month end.
Fits how a school is run
- Leave can go through more than one approver, such as the head of department and then the principal. Each approver needs an HR login.
- Each campus can have its own HR user, limited to that campus. See Security.
- Staff documents are kept private, and each person sees only their own.
- Loans and salary advances are recovered through payroll.
Also in the same system
- Recruitment, with a careers page for your school.
- Appraisals with your own review forms.
- Exit, with a full and final settlement and gratuity worked out.
Questions from schools
Does AiroHR manage students, fees or timetables?
No. AiroHR is for staff only: attendance, leave, payroll and HR. Use your school management system for students, fees and timetables.
Can teachers have a vacation while office staff keep working?
Yes. A holiday can apply to one department or designation only. Holidays are added date by date, so a long vacation is added as separate dates.
How are part-time and guest teachers paid?
Set them up as Work Basis staff with an hourly rate. Payroll pays the minutes they punched at that rate.
Can we run several campuses?
Yes. Each campus is a branch, with its own holidays if you need them, and an HR user can be limited to one campus.
Is gratuity worked out for teachers?
Yes, in the full and final settlement, from service and basic pay, using the five-year rule or the one-year rule for staff marked as fixed-term. HR can change the figure before approving it.
This page describes AiroHR as of October 2026. Steps done by staff need the employee portal or app on their plan.
