Enter both dates and the wage to see the figure.
Enter the country, the start and end dates, and the last wage. Years of service are the days between those dates divided by 365. The figure is the statutory arithmetic, not a court finding. This is general information, not legal advice.
This is general information, not legal advice, and it does not create a lawyer–client relationship. Laws change. Check the sources and have the text reviewed by a lawyer licensed in the relevant jurisdiction before you rely on it. Last reviewed: 29 October 2026.
A worked example for each country
The figures are the statutory arithmetic above, not a judgment and not a ministry printout.
- Saudi Arabia, last wage 10,000, seven years, employer termination: 5 × ½ × 10,000 + 2 × 10,000 = 45,000 (Art. 84).
- UAE, last basic 10,000, seven years: (21 × 5 × 10,000 + 30 × 2 × 10,000) ÷ 30 = 55,000. Cap 240,000 not reached (Art. 51).
What is not calculated
- Probation, Article 81 resignations, force majeure, and a woman ending the contract within six months of marriage or three months of birth are stated on the guide. They are not a field here.
- Unpaid absence, commissions, part-time work, UAE nationals, the voluntary savings scheme, domestic workers, DIFC and ADGM, and dismissal for cause remain under review.
- Old unlimited-contract resignation cuts from before 2022 are not the UAE rule in force. Private-sector contracts are fixed-term, and Article 51 applies without that cut.
