Your end-of-service gratuity under Decree-Law 33/2021 Art. 51 — basic wage, no resignation penalty — plus the savings-scheme comparison. Computes the end-of-service gratuity (مكافأة نهاية الخدمة) under UAE Decree-Law 33/2021: 21 days of basic wage per year for the first five years of service, 30 days per year after, on the LAST basic wage only, capped at two years' wage — and, in compare mode, the monthly contribution the voluntary savings scheme (Cabinet Resolution 96/2023) would pay instead. General AI reliably gets the UAE wrong in two ways: it cites the ABOLISHED 1980-law rules (limited/unlimited contracts, the 1/3–2/3 resignation penalty, forfeiture on dismissal — all gone since February 2022), and it ports Saudi rules across the border (KSA uses the actual wage including allowances, keeps a resignation ladder, and zeroes the award on an Art. 80 dismissal; the UAE does none of those). Mainland UAE only — DIFC (DEWS) and ADGM have their own regimes.
Input schema
| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| basicMonthly | number | no | Last monthly BASIC wage (AED) (AED) UAE gratuity uses the BASIC wage only — housing, transport, and other allowances are excluded. This is the OPPOSITE of Saudi Arabia, where the base is the actual wage including allowances. Check your contract's basic/allowance split; the gratuity rides on the basic line alone. |
| serviceYears | number | no | Years of service Total continuous service in years — decimals are fine, fractions of a year earn pro-rata. Days of unpaid absence are excluded from the service count. Under one full year of service, no gratuity is due. |
| mode | string | no | What to compute The savings scheme is an employer opt-in that replaces gratuity accrual with monthly contributions to a licensed, ring-fenced fund. Compare mode shows the monthly contribution at your current service band and how the two regimes differ. |
