How this calculator works

  1. Enter the inputs above. Provide the figures the calculator asks for — wages, dates, contract type, etc. We use only the values you enter; nothing leaves your browser.

  3. Read the result and the breakdown. The headline number is shown alongside any caps, eligibility flags, and step-by-step working so you can verify the figure against your contract or the law.
  4. Take next steps. If the result confirms a right or obligation you want to act on, talk to a UAE-licensed lawyer through the link below or browse the Q&A library for follow-up questions.
