What you get as an employer on AskMandla

Reviewed July 2026 · For employers

When you sign up as an employer with AskMandla, we handle the heavy lifting around compliance, payments, and admin. You get a legally compliant employment contract, a monthly payslip, help paying your worker's salary, leave and attendance tracking, UIF support, and guidance for tricky situations. Everything happens through WhatsApp, so there are no apps, no spreadsheets, and no confusion. It is the easiest way to stay legal, organised, and fair with your domestic worker.

Legally compliant employment contract

We generate a ready-to-sign contract that follows the Basic Conditions of Employment Act (BCEA).

  • Customised to your worker's role, hours, and salary
  • Includes leave, sick days, overtime, and more
  • Digitally signed and stored for your records

Need a copy later? We will WhatsApp it to you any time.

Monthly payslip, with compliance built in

We calculate and deliver a professional payslip every month.

  • Tracks days worked, leave taken, and deductions
  • Includes UIF and PAYE information, when applicable
  • Matches what you have paid by EFT or card

You stay compliant, and your worker sees full transparency.

Salary payment made simple

At the start of each month, we send you a single invoice that covers:

  • The salary, as agreed in the contract
  • UIF and any deductions
  • AskMandla's service fee

You pay once, and we pay your employee on time. No forgetting, just done.

Leave and attendance tracking

We help you keep track of:

  • Annual leave, which accrues monthly
  • Sick leave, with or without a doctor's note
  • Family responsibility leave
  • Unpaid or unauthorised absences

It all shows up on the payslip.

UIF and COIDA admin

We can help you with:

  • Getting your domestic worker's UIF and COIDA admin processed
  • Making sure monthly contributions are deducted
  • Keeping your records up to date for the Department of Employment and Labour

If you have never done UIF before, do not worry. We will guide you through it.

Not sure what to do if your employee is off sick, there is a disciplinary issue, or you want to end the working relationship? AskMandla gives you:

  • Templates for warnings
  • Guidance on the correct procedures
  • Help generating a termination letter

It is all handled professionally, with your employee's rights in mind.
