EPF, ETF & APIT Payroll Checklist for Sri Lankan Employers

Statutory payroll work is easier when the monthly payroll input process is controlled. This checklist focuses on operational preparation rather than legal advice: employee data, attendance, approved earnings/deductions, payroll review and documentation.

Confirm employee master changes first

Joiners, resignations, salary changes, designation changes and other payroll-impacting employee updates should be confirmed before payroll processing begins.

Finalize attendance and leave

Attendance, leave, no-pay, overtime and approved corrections should be reviewed and finalized. Payroll should not rely on an unfinished attendance period.

Collect approved payroll changes

Allowances, deductions, one-time payments, advances or other changes should be submitted through an authorized and traceable process.

Review payroll calculations before final release

A payroll review file gives the client an opportunity to confirm totals, employee-level changes and unusual values before payslips and final outputs are released.

Prepare payroll-related statutory outputs

EPF, ETF and APIT-related calculations, reports and documentation support should follow the agreed payroll scope and current applicable requirements. Employers should confirm legal obligations with the relevant authorities or qualified advisers where necessary.

How Master HR approaches this

Master HR supports payroll-related EPF, ETF and APIT calculations, reporting and documentation as part of the agreed payroll service scope.
