Dear Customer
Thanks for joining and trusting us, much appreciated! We welcome you to join us in the legal section
It should be noted that after reviewing your inquiry and legal scrutiny we would like to inform you that

Even through the legal procedures, lawyers will not usually calculate – instead experts are called in to calculate the final amount (they are usually accountants).

With that said, the principle of the calculations is not that hard to master, and I suggest that you calculate it so that you have a rough idea of your termination indemnity amount.

This will depend on whether you have been terminated or you have terminated the contract.

In the event where you are terminated:

* Less than 5 years of employment – 15 days’ pay of your salary.

* Between 5 to 10 years of employment – 30 days’ pay of your salary.

* The total amount should not exceed an amount that is more than one year and a half of salary.

In the event where you have terminated your contract and it is an indefinite term contract:

* 3-5 years of employment – half of the indemnity mentioned above.

* 5-10 years – two thirds of the indemnity mentioned above.

* 10 plus years – you will be entitled to your entire indemnity.

If you have another question, feel free to ask us and we will answer with pleasure

For employees who are paid based on piece-rate, hourly, daily or weekly basis, a termination indemnity of 10 days compensation for each completed years of service for the first 5 years and 15 days salary payment for each complete year more than 5 years. This is limited to one year’s salary in which both cases of part years, pro-rated amount is calculated

An employee who was not able to complete his five years of service is not entitled to any indemnity once he decides to resign. Any employee who resigns after working for five years or more in the company is given 50% indemnity. For employees who have reached their retirement age, which were disabled at work or died are given full indemnity. A full indemnity is also given to women employees who married while she is an employee and women employees who renders resignation within 6 months of marriage.
