How gratuity estimates are calculated
A plain-English walkthrough for UAE household employers.
Inputs used
MaidShield uses start date, end date, basic monthly salary, and optional unpaid leave days to build an estimate.
It does not auto-detect your contract terms, bank records, allowances, or dispute outcomes.
How the estimate is structured
- Service duration is derived from the dates entered.
- Unpaid leave days reduce adjusted service days when provided.
- The estimate is calculated from salary and adjusted service period.
- A visible breakdown and assumptions list is shown with the result.
What to verify before final settlement
- Contract dates and any amendments.
- Which salary definition applies in your case.
- Any unpaid leave evidence and approvals.
- Records for pending salary, leave balance, and payment receipts.
Use this estimate as planning support, then confirm final figures with your records and advisors.
