Federal part-time and job-sharing gratuity is calculated by finding the contracted-hours percentage of full-time annual hours and applying that percentage to the full-time gratuity entitlement.

Federal Article 30 of the implementing regulation scales the full-time gratuity by contracted annual hours divided by full-time annual hours. Confirm employment type, service exclusions and whether the traditional gratuity system still applies.
Formula used
Part-time gratuity = full-time gratuity × (contracted annual hours ÷ full-time annual hours).
Assumptions to verify
- The worker is in a part-time or job-sharing arrangement covered by the federal implementing regulation.
- The traditional gratuity system applies rather than the Savings Scheme.
- The entered full-time hours are the appropriate comparison for the employment arrangement.
What this result does not prove
- Temporary employment under one year where gratuity does not apply.
- Unpaid absence adjustments not entered in this focused tool.
- ADGM or DIFC employment.
Why hours matter
The formula is not simply “half the gratuity for a half-time worker” unless the contract hours actually equal 50% of the full-time annual hours used for comparison.
