Your indemnity in KWD — with the rates in your contract
Enter your last monthly wage, your service dates and the rates from your contract or from PAM. We count full months of service, the daily wage and the award after the cap, and prepare an Excel file and a request for your dues.
- Ask your employer for a written final settlement statement and compare it with this calculation.
- Check the rates in Article 51 of Law No. 6 of 2010 (as amended) with the Public Authority for Manpower.
- Send the request for your dues and keep a copy signed as received.
Arithmetic only: full months of service ÷ 12; daily wage = wage ÷ days; indemnity = (first-band days + later days) × daily wage, capped, × share. You enter every rate — we could not verify Article 51 from an official source. Not legal advice.

| Daily wage | Last monthly wage ÷ the number of days you enter | Rate from your contract or PAM |
| Indemnity | Days per year in the first band + days per year after it, × daily wage, capped in months, × the share due in your case | You enter every rate |
We could not verify Article 51 of Law No. 6 of 2010 from an official source, so we give no ready-made numbers: the calculator applies the rates you enter.
