Qiwa End of Service Calculator: How to Use It (2026)

By Ali Muhammad · Engineer and founder of Hasebio · Last updated: 14 October 2026

Quick answer: The Ministry of Human Resources' official end-of-service calculator (often called the Ministry of Labor or labor office calculator) is now on Qiwa, under Knowledge Hub → Tools and Calculators → End of Service Reward Calculator. It is free and asks for five things: contract type, termination reason, total salary, contract start date and contract end date.

How to use it, step by step

  1. Contract type: choose Fixed-term contract or Open-ended contract. Check your contract in Qiwa if you are not sure.
  2. Termination reason: pick the reason your contract ended (see the table below). The list is different for each contract type.
  3. Total salary: Qiwa defines this as the “latest sum of basic salary and all cash allowances”. Use your last basic salary plus housing, transport and other cash allowances, not basic salary alone.
  4. Contract start date and contract end date in DD/MM/YYYY.
  5. Click Calculate reward.

Which termination reason should you choose?

Qiwa lists 16–17 reasons, each named after a Labor Law article. These are the common situations and what the law gives you.

What happenedChoose in QiwaEnd-of-service award
Fixed-term contract reached its end dateTermination of the contract upon its expirationFull award
You resigned from a fixed-term contractEmployee resignationNone under 2 years, 1/3 from 2 to 5, 2/3 above 5 and under 10, full from 10 years
You ended an open-ended contract yourselfBy the unilateral will of one of the parties (Article 75)By law, the same resignation shares as above. Careful: Qiwa shows the full award here (see the test below)
The employer ended an open-ended contractBy the unilateral will of one of the parties (Article 75)Full award
Fired without a valid reasonTermination without a legitimate reason (Article 77)Full award, plus separate compensation for unfair termination
Dismissed for serious misconductDirect termination by the employer (Article 80)No award
Contract ended during probationTermination during the probationary period (Article 53)No award
You left because the employer broke the contract or the lawDirect termination by the worker (Article 81)Full award
A female worker resigned within 6 months of marriage or 3 months of childbirthTermination by a female worker due to marriage / childbirth (Article 87)Full award
Retirement age, permanent closure, end of the activity, inability to work, deathThe matching Article 74 / 79 / 137 reasonFull award

The Article 77 compensation is a separate amount and is not part of the end-of-service award.

We tested Qiwa against Hasebio

Same inputs in both calculators: total salary 8,000 SAR, 1 January 2022 to 31 December 2025 (4 years).

Contract and reasonQiwaHasebio
Fixed-term, contract reached its end date16,000 SAR16,000 SAR
Fixed-term, employee resignation (4 years = 1/3)5,333.33 SAR5,333.33 SAR
Open-ended, dismissed under Article 800 SAR0 SAR (no award)
Open-ended, unilateral will (Article 75)16,000 SAR16,000 SAR if the employer ended it; 5,333.33 SAR if you resigned

The results match in every case except one. Qiwa's Article 75 option does not ask who ended the contract and always shows the full award. If the employer ended your open-ended contract, that is correct. If you resigned, Article 85 of the Labor Law reduces the award by your years of service, so the real amount is lower (one third in this example). If you resigned from an open-ended contract, treat the Qiwa figure as the maximum and check the resignation share in the resignation guide.

Hasebio also lets you enter whole years instead of dates and shows each step of the calculation, so you can see where every riyal comes from.

Why your employer's figure may differ

  • Salary: the employer used basic salary only, while Qiwa uses basic plus all cash allowances.
  • Dates: a different start date, or unpaid leave that was not counted as service.
  • Reason: the employer recorded a different termination reason than the one you chose.
  • Leave and last salary: the calculator gives the end-of-service award only. Unused leave and the last month's salary are paid on top (final settlement guide).

If the gap is real and the employer will not correct it, you can file a labor complaint with the Ministry of Human Resources.
