Saudi Arabia End of Service Calculator 2026
Calculate your end of service benefit (مكافأة نهاية الخدمة) under Saudi Labour Law Article 84. Works for both resignations and employer-terminated contracts.
Saudi End of Service — Labour Law Formula
Under Saudi Labour Law Article 84, the end of service benefit is calculated based on your final basic monthly salary multiplied by years of service. The rate varies depending on your reason for leaving:
| Scenario | Years | Entitlement |
|---|---|---|
| Terminated by employer | Any length | Full: 1 month per year |
| Resigned | Less than 2 years | No entitlement |
| Resigned | 2–less than 5 years | 1/3 of full entitlement |
| Resigned | 5–less than 10 years | 2/3 of full entitlement |
| Resigned | 10 years or more | Full entitlement |
The calculation basis is your last basic salary. Housing allowance, transport allowance, and other benefits are not included. If your salary increased over your employment, the calculation uses your final salary as of your last working day.
Saudi End of Service Examples
| Basic Salary (SAR) | Years | Left (Reason) | End of Service |
|---|---|---|---|
| SAR 5,000 | 3 years | Terminated | SAR 15,000 |
| SAR 5,000 | 3 years | Resigned | SAR 5,000 (1/3) |
| SAR 5,000 | 7 years | Resigned | SAR 23,333 (2/3) |
| SAR 8,000 | 10 years | Resigned | SAR 80,000 (full) |
| SAR 8,000 | 10 years | Terminated | SAR 80,000 (full) |
Key Rules and Exceptions
Notice period: If you resign without serving the notice period specified in your contract, the employer can deduct equivalent salary. This does not affect the end of service calculation — it is a separate deduction.
Serious misconduct termination: Article 80 of the Saudi Labour Law allows termination without end of service in specific cases of serious misconduct (gross insubordination, assault, fraud). Normal terminations do not trigger this exception.
Payment timing: Saudi law requires end of service payment within the last day of employment or shortly after. Delays can be reported to the Ministry of Human Resources (HRSD).
