About NovaHR

NovaHR, from Nova Business OS, is HR and payroll software for growing South African businesses. It brings employee records, onboarding, leave, payslips and payroll into one place, pays salaries straight to the bank and handles SARS compliance, including PAYE, UIF, SDL, EMP201, EMP501 and IRP5/IT3(a), as well as ETI, COIDA and Employment Equity.

The product integrates with Netcash for payments, is ready for POPIA and offers a free 30-day trial. The company says payroll can be run in minutes while records stay audit-ready, without spreadsheets or separate tools. The company is based in Midrand.
