How the Saudi end-of-service award works

The award builds up with each year of service: half a month's wage for each of the first 5 years, then a full month's wage for each year after that.

Award = last wage × (½ × years up to 5 + 1 × years after 5)

If you resign

Worked example

On a last wage of SAR 8,000 after 7 years, the full award is 5 × ½ × 8,000 + 2 × 8,000 = SAR 36,000. Resigning after 7 years gives two thirds of that: SAR 24,000.
