Frequently asked questions
Does gratuity differ for limited vs unlimited contracts?
The calculation method is largely the same under current UAE labour law, but always check your specific contract terms.
Is gratuity paid even if I resign?
Yes, though the amount can be reduced for resignation before completing certain years of service, depending on the applicable rules at the time.
What salary is gratuity based on?
It's based on your basic salary only — allowances like housing, transport, and other benefits are typically excluded from the gratuity calculation.
Is there a maximum gratuity amount?
Yes, UAE labour law caps total gratuity at a set number of years' salary regardless of how long you've actually worked — check current regulations for the exact cap.
