حساب مكافأة نهاية الخدمة عند الاستقالة

Good Day

I will tell you about the UAE law so you can check and calculate.

An employee who has spent one year or more in continuous service shall be entitled to an end of service gratuity upon the termination of his service.

The days of absence from work without pay shall not be included in the calculation of the period of service and the gratuity shall be calculated as follows:

- If an employee has served for less than 1 year, he is not entitled to any gratuity pay.

- If an employee has served for more than 1 year but less than 5 years, he is entitled to full gratuity pay based on 21 days' salary for each year of work.

In the event where the employer terminates an unlimited contract, the calculation will be as follows:

- If an employee has served for less than 1 year, he is not entitled to any gratuity pay.

- If an employee has served more than 1 year but less than 5 years, he is entitled to 21 calendar days' basic salary for each year of the first five years of work.

- If an employee has served more than 5 years, he is entitled to 30 calendar days' basic salary for each additional year, provided the entire compensation does not exceed two years' pay.

In the event where the employee under an unlimited contract resigns, the calculation will be as follows:

- If an employee resigns before completing 1 year of service, he is not entitled to any gratuity pay.

- If an employee has served between 1 and 3 years, he is entitled to one third (1/3) of 21 days' basic salary as gratuity pay

- If an employee has served between 3 and 5 years, he is entitled to two-thirds (2/3) of 21 days' basic salary as gratuity pay

- If an employee has served more than 5 years, he is entitled to full 21 days' basic salary as gratuity pay

They are asking you to pay a two-months full salary as a penalty since you're resigning without completing the limited contract.

Check your contract if have an article stating that.
