People — Thai HR
Employees, leave, time, and recruitment — built on Thai labour law, not translated onto it.
Leave types seeded from Thai law, clock in/out with OT approval, recruitment with public careers pages, and payroll-ready monthly exports your payroll provider can consume directly.
The document flow
How it flows
- 1
Post the job on your careers page
Every organization gets a public careers page. Post a role and candidates apply through a full Thai application form — no third-party job-board account required.
- 2
Run candidates through the ATS
Move applicants through pipeline stages, let them self-schedule interviews, and manage offers in one place instead of a LINE group and a spreadsheet.
- 3
Offer, contract e-accept, onboarding
The chosen candidate accepts the contract online, submits onboarding documents, and converts into an employee record with one action — nothing re-keyed.
- 4
The employee record, in Thai
Bilingual Thai/English names with nicknames, social security fields, documents with expiry alerts, and salary history gated behind a separate permission from ordinary personal data.
- 5
Daily life: leave, time, OT, expenses
Staff clock in and out, request leave against Thai-law entitlements, submit OT for approval, and file expense claims and cash advances — all from a phone, as an installable app.
- 6
Month-end: export to payroll
One export of the month's time, leave and OT as PDF/Excel for your payroll provider. Tonbab does not calculate payroll — it hands your provider clean inputs.

Time & overtime

Daily attendance with exception classification for late, absent and missing punches.
OT requests & approval
Overtime is requested and approved, not assumed — so the month-end numbers are defensible.

Who it's for
-
Thai SMEs whose HR still lives in paper forms, LINE groups and one overloaded spreadsheet.
-
Factories and field teams that need phone-first clock-in and OT approval.
-
Growing companies hiring regularly who want a real careers page and ATS without an extra subscription.
-
Teams that already outsource payroll and just need clean monthly inputs for it.
Frequently asked
Does Tonbab calculate payroll?
No. Tonbab prepares the inputs — time, leave, OT — as monthly PDF/Excel exports for your payroll provider or accountant. Payroll tax filing stays with the experts you already use.
Are the leave types really Thai-law based?
Yes — leave types are seeded from Thai labour-law entitlements (sick, personal, annual, maternity and more) and every rule is editable to match your own policy.
Who can see salaries?
Only roles granted the salary permission — it is separate from the permission for ordinary personal data, so managers can run their teams without seeing pay.
Do employees need to install anything?
No app store needed — Tonbab is an installable web app (PWA). Employees open a link on any phone and add it to their home screen.
