Step 1

Which rules apply to your employment?

Your employer’s legal registration matters more than the city where you work.

Government employees, domestic workers, pension-enrolled UAE/GCC nationals and unsupported free-zone cases need a different review. Not sure which path applies?
This complete tool owns

Full job-exit settlement planning across salary, leave, notice, gratuity or DEWS, additions and deductions.

Use a focused tool instead when

You only need overtime, annual leave, a notice date, salary conversion, unpaid leave, public-holiday work, probation notice or salary-complaint triage.

Unused vacation is not monthly wage divided by 30

DIFC Daily Wage is based on Annual Wage divided by 260 for a five-day work week, or the corresponding average weekly work-day denominator for another schedule. The calculator now uses that method for termination leave compensation.

DEWS is one qualifying scheme, not the entire settlement

Keep salary, unused vacation, notice and any preserved pre-1 February 2020 entitlement separate from qualifying-scheme contributions and investment value.

Relevant termination payments are generally due within 14 days

The calculator surfaces the deadline but does not automatically add an Article 19 penalty because statutory thresholds and waiver conditions can apply.
