Estimate compensation for illegitimate termination under Article 77 when the contract does not specify its own compensation.

How it works

The calculator applies the documented rule to the values you enter and shows the resulting estimate. Official records, eligibility conditions, the employment contract and the competent authority remain controlling.

The formula

P(indefinite) = max(W × Y ÷ 2, 2W); P(fixed) = max(W × M, 2W)

Inputs: Monthly wage (SAR) • Contract type • Service years • Remaining contract months

Worked example

W=6,000 SAR; Y=1 → max(3,000,12,000)=12,000 SAR
