Saudi end of service calculator (EOSB)
Your end-of-service award under the Saudi Labor Law: half a month's wage for each of the first 5 years, a full month for each year after - and what you keep if you resign.
Your estimate
How it is worked out
| Service | Award |
|---|---|
| First 5 years | Half a month's wage for each year |
| After 5 years | One month's wage for each further year |
| If you resign after | You get |
|---|---|
| Under 2 years | Nothing |
| 2 to 5 years | One third |
| 5 to 10 years | Two thirds |
| 10 years or more | All of it |
Example: wage SAR 8,000, 8 years, resigned: full award 4,000 × 5 + 8,000 × 3 = SAR 44,000; two thirds = SAR 29,333.

Questions
How is end of service calculated in Saudi Arabia?
Under Article 84 of the Labor Law: half a month's wage for each of the first five years and one month's wage for each year after that, on the last wage. Part years count pro rata.
What if I resign?
Under Article 85: nothing with less than 2 years of service, one third of the award with 2 to 5 years, two thirds with 5 to 10 years, and the whole award with 10 years or more.
When do I get the full award even if I leave?
Under Article 87: when you leave because of force majeure beyond your control, and for a woman who ends her contract within 6 months of marriage or 3 months of giving birth.
Which wage is used - basic or total?
The Labor Law uses the wage, which can include regular allowances (such as housing) - check your contract. Commissions and similar variable pay can be excluded by agreement. Enter the wage your contract uses for the end-of-service award.
Can I lose the award?
A worker dismissed for one of the reasons in Article 80 (serious misconduct) does not get the award.
