What goes into a Oman final settlement
| Item | Paid on | Rule |
|---|---|---|
| Unpaid salary | Total wage ÷ 30 × days | Wages to the last day |
| Gratuity | Basic wage | Article 61 |
| Unused annual leave | Gross wage ÷ 30 × days | Articles 78 and 81 |
| Notice pay | Wage for the notice period | Article 38 |
Leave and notice in Oman
- Annual leave: 30 days a year. Paid on gross wage ÷ 30.
- Notice: At least 30 days for monthly-paid workers.
If your employer ended the contract without letting you work the notice, the notice days are added as pay. If you resigned and did not serve the notice, they are shown as a deduction. For a dismissal for misconduct, no notice pay is added.
Before you sign
Ask your employer for a written breakdown and check each line against your payslips, leave record and contract. Your contract can give more than the law, but not less.
Work out each part
For the end of service part alone, with every step, use the Oman gratuity calculator. To compare rules across the Gulf, see the GCC gratuity comparison.
