Headline federal accrual assumptions only. Approved carryover, contractual enhancements, leave taken and the correct termination wage basis must be verified.

Formula used

The tool models zero statutory annual leave below six months, two days per month from six to twelve months, and 30 days per year after one year. Unused termination value is shown using basic wage ÷ 30.

Assumptions to verify

  • Employment dates are complete and uninterrupted.
  • Leave already taken is entered accurately.
  • The basic wage is the correct termination encashment basis for the claim being reviewed.

What this result does not prove

  • Employer-approved carryover and enhanced benefits.
  • Disputed attendance, leave approvals or ledger corrections.
  • Sick, parental, study or other leave categories.

Use the result as an evidence check

Save the assumptions beside the contract, payroll records and official source used. A result becomes useful when every input can be traced to an original record.
