Housekeeping contracts run on volume: hundreds of cleaners across offices, hospitals, malls and airports, each on the applicable state unskilled wage, often on multiple shifts. The margin is thin, so getting wages, attendance and billing exactly right is the whole game.
These are the roles this vertical staffs most, each on its own minimum-wage band. Open a role to see its wage across states.
Housekeeping falls under the state Shops and Establishment or Factories schedules, plus PF, ESI and the Contract Labour Act where you deploy 20 or more workers to a principal employer. Hospitals and airports audit the muster roll and wage register closely, and the principal employer is liable for your lapses, which is why they check.
ZeniaHR checks every cleaner against the correct state unskilled or semi-skilled wage automatically, runs PF, ESI, PT and LWF, builds the muster roll and wage register per site, and invoices each client separately so your billing matches deployment. Onboarding, attendance, leave, employee self-service, ID cards and reports sit in one system, so your team stops stitching spreadsheets together.
Unlike a generic HRMS, ZeniaHR is built for one industry, yours. For a housekeeping services operation that means the workflows already understand a housekeeping worker, sweeper, supervisor mix on different skill bands, per-client sites billed separately, and the minimum-wage revisions that hit every six months. You start free for your first 100 workers, then pay per worker as you grow, so the cost tracks your actual deployment rather than a fixed licence.
Housekeeping staff are generally paid the state unskilled minimum wage, which varies by state and revises twice a year. See our housekeeping minimum wage by state page for the current rate.
Yes. Payroll and invoicing are tracked per client site, so each contract is billed separately and matched to the workers actually deployed there.
