Quick answer
Notice pay is not only a math question. The result can change if notice is served, waived, partly served, paid in lieu, or offset against leave.
What to enter
If you select gross salary basis, enter the gross monthly salary. If you select basic salary basis, enter the basic monthly salary. Mixing the basis and the amount is the fastest way to get a misleading estimate.
Before you rely on the result
Read the notice clause, probation clause, resignation acceptance, termination letter, and any email about waived notice. Ask payroll which salary basis they used if notice appears in your final settlement.
Common mistake
A verbal comment such as 'you do not need to serve notice' can mean different things. Ask whether notice is waived, paid, deducted, or treated as garden leave, and get the answer in writing.
Official context
For labour-law context, check MOHRE labour law resources. Free zone employees should also check the relevant authority or employer process.
Frequently asked questions
What salary amount should I type into the notice calculator?
Type the monthly amount for the basis you selected: gross if you selected gross, basic if you selected basic.
Can waived notice still affect my final settlement?
Yes. Waiver, payment in lieu, deductions, and garden leave can be treated differently depending on documents and policy.
Should resignation and termination notice be checked the same way?
Start with the contract in both cases, then compare it with the employer's written instruction or settlement breakdown.
