Thanks for your question! I hope you are doing well. I will definitely assist you in this matter.

Your gratuity should be 16,380 AED based on the standard calculation for your 6 years and 6 months of service with a 1200 AED basic salary.

Dear Questioner,

The end-of-service gratuity for full-time workers is calculated according to the basic salary, as follows:

1. Remuneration of (21) twenty-one Days for every year of service of the first five years.

2. Remuneration of (30) thirty Days for each year after the first five years.

Also, a foreign worker is entitled to a gratuity for fractions of the year in proportion to the period they have worked during that year, provided they have completed one year of continuous service.

You can calculate your gratuity according to this calculation.
