How end-of-service indemnity works in Kuwait
Under Article 51 of Private Sector Labour Law No. 6 of 2010, a monthly-paid worker gets:
- First five years: 15 days' wage per year.
- After five years: one month's wage per year.
- Part years count pro rata, and the total can't exceed 18 months' wage.
The calculator takes a day's wage as the monthly wage ÷ 26, the usual practice in Kuwait.
If you resign (Article 53)
| Service | You get |
|---|---|
| Under 3 years | Nothing |
| 3 to under 5 years | Half |
| 5 to under 10 years | Two thirds |
| 10 years or more | All of it |
Estimate only. Check with the Public Authority for Manpower (PAM) to be sure.
