ATM Machine Suppliers TestLink To Address Dubai ATMIA Conference

(PRWEB) January 7, 2010 -- ATM machine suppliers TestLink’s Chairman Nick Beer is to address ATM business leaders from all over the world at the next major ATMIA conference in Dubai.

Mr Beer will tell the Middle East ATMs 2010 conference how to create a private ATM network and make it an innovative and secure payroll solution for migrant workers.

He will deliver a joint presentation with Ibrahim Darraz, General Manager of Workers Equity Holding (WEH).

They will speak on day two of the Middle East ATMs 2010 ATMIA conference which will run from January 11-12 at the Radisson Blu Hotel, Dubai Deira Creek.

Together they will highlight how refurbished ATMs from TestLink are being used to help WEH expand its innovative payroll solution across the Middle East.

WEH purchased 20 NCR 5684 ATMs from TestLink to expand its private ATM network which helps client companies to pay migrant workforces.

These ATMs are being used to dispense wages and payslips to migrant workers without bank accounts.

TestLink has remanufactured the ATMs to ‘as new’ condition and is also providing high quality refurbished ATM parts and ongoing support to WEH.

Migrant workers without bank accounts can now access their wages and payslips in safe and convenient amounts from refurbished ATMs installed at their work accommodation.

As soon as each worker inserts their cash card into a TestLink ATM, it automatically displays dispensing options in their pre-selected language.

There are numerous benefits for companies and their migrant workers:

•    Workers can access wages and payslips at point of need, reducing costly and time-consuming travel. This also cuts congestion and benefits the environment.

•    Companies no longer have to store and distribute large amounts of cash to workers without bank accounts.

•    Companies can track payments and payment histories online quickly, easily and securely.

Nick Beer said: “We definitely see this being rolled out across the Middle East region – Abu Dhabi and Saudi Arabia are in full growth. It has great possibilities for Africa as well.”

WEH’s payroll solution will help Middle East employers cope with new legislation that increases the duty of care on employers to ensure that migrant workers are paid promptly.
