The Wage Protection System (WPS) is the UAE Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE) system for paying private-sector salaries electronically through approved banks, exchange houses and financial institutions. Each month the employer submits a Salary Information File (SIF): a comma-separated file with one EDR line per employee and one SCR control line that summarises the whole file.

This validator checks all of these in your browser. Your bank or exchange house may apply additional checks (for example, that each employee ID is registered to your establishment), so a file that passes here can still be rejected for data reasons.
No. The file is read and checked entirely inside your browser; it is never sent to our servers.
In the standard comma-separated SIF the SCR control line is the last line, after all EDR lines. Some bank formats place it first; this validator accepts both.
It is the employee's 14-digit MOHRE person code, shown on the labour card or work permit.
The sum of the fixed and variable income of every EDR line in the file.
