Employee administration is the day-to-day management of employee records, onboarding documentation, leave, attendance, and statutory registers. HRBD provides outsourced employee administration in Bangladesh for foreign companies — maintaining Labour Act 2006-compliant personnel files, DIFE inspection-ready registers, and accurate employment documentation, so you never need to hire an in-house HR administrator.
A fixed four-step cycle keeps every employee record in Bangladesh accurate, current, and inspection-ready — without you hiring an in-house HR administrator.
We audit your existing Bangladesh employee files and identify every missing statutory document, register, and contract before onboarding you.
We build compliant personnel files and set up all Labour Act 2006 registers, service books, and leave records from day one.
Attendance, leave, contract updates, certificates, and record changes are processed every month on a fixed schedule.
A DIFE-readiness check plus reconciliation of Provident Fund, Gratuity, and salary records against payroll each quarter.
Every employer in Bangladesh must keep employee registers, service books, and wage records under the Labour Act 2006 and Labour Rules 2015. The Department of Inspection for Factories and Establishments (DIFE) can examine these records without prior notice, and the National Board of Revenue (NBR) reviews salary and tax-deduction documentation during audits. HRBD maintains all of it for you — alongside Bangladesh labour law compliance, background screening, and address verification for new hires.
Employee records & personnel files — maintained for every stage of the employment lifecycle, from appointment letter to exit clearance.
Leave & attendance registers — kept in line with the Labour Act 2006 and Labour Rules 2015.
Statutory legal compliance — registers kept DIFE inspection-ready, covering all applicable laws and regulations.
Employment contracts — amendments and renewal tracking managed for your entire Bangladesh team.
Provident Fund & Gratuity records — reconciled with monthly payroll data.
Salary & tax documentation — organised to National Board of Revenue (NBR) requirements.
Certificates & HR helpdesk — employment certificates, verification letters, and a dedicated contact for day-to-day queries.
If you employ 1–50 staff in Bangladesh without a local HR office, outsourcing is typically the lower-cost, lower-risk option: a fixed monthly per-employee fee replaces a full-time administrator’s salary, and statutory records stay audit-ready. It also pairs naturally with PEO support for SMEs and the wider employment services HRBD provides.
Complete personnel files — contracts, IDs, tax references, and service records — maintained in inspection-ready order for every employee.
Appointment letters, joining documentation, exit clearances, and final settlement records handled end to end.
Leave registers, attendance tracking, and holiday records maintained under the Labour Rules 2015.

Employee administration is the operational management of employee records, onboarding and offboarding documentation, leave and attendance, and statutory registers. It covers the paperwork and record-keeping an employer must maintain — separate from strategic HR functions such as recruitment or performance management.
Under the Labour Act 2006 and Labour Rules 2015, employers must maintain a register of workers, leave registers, service books, and wage records. DIFE inspectors can request these documents during announced or unannounced inspections.
Employee administration handles records, documentation, and statutory compliance — the operational layer of employment. HR management covers strategy: recruitment, performance, and development. Most foreign companies outsource administration first because it is process-driven and compliance-critical.
Yes. A foreign company can combine an Employer of Record arrangement with outsourced employee administration, so staff are employed and administered compliantly in Bangladesh without establishing a local entity.
Pricing is typically a fixed monthly fee per employee, which usually costs less than a full-time HR administrator’s salary and overhead for teams of under 50 staff. HRBD provides a quote based on your exact headcount within one business day.
