Rules for using our gratuity tools and guidance.

These Terms explain the limits of GratuityDue.com, including calculator estimates, educational content, acceptable use, and contact with us.

Agreement to these Terms

By using GratuityDue.com, you agree to these Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, you should stop using the site. These Terms apply to the UAE gratuity calculator, article library, UAE Labour Law guide, About page, Contact page, and any other page or feature provided under the GratuityDue.com name.

We may update these Terms as the site develops. The version published on this page is the version that applies when you use the site. Continued use after an update means you accept the updated Terms. We encourage users to review this page when relying on site information for an employment or settlement decision.

Informational use only

GratuityDue.com provides general information about UAE end-of-service gratuity, final settlement issues, salary components, resignation, termination, probation, Dubai and Abu Dhabi calculation topics, and related labour law concepts. The site is designed to help users understand common issues and prepare better questions. It is not a government service, law firm, payroll provider, dispute-resolution body, or official authority.

The information on the site is not legal advice and should not be treated as a substitute for advice from MOHRE, the relevant free-zone authority, your employer, a qualified legal professional, or another appropriate advisor. Employment facts can be specific. A real dispute may involve contract wording, free-zone rules, salary changes, deductions, misconduct allegations, unpaid leave records, or documents that an online guide cannot fully assess.

You are responsible for deciding how to use the information. If a decision may affect your legal rights, immigration status, employment, or financial settlement, verify the position through official sources or qualified advice before acting.

Calculator estimates

The gratuity calculator provides an estimate based on the values entered by the user and the calculation approach presented on the site. It is intended to help users understand the approximate gratuity line, daily basic wage, service duration, gratuity days, and cap treatment. It is not a final settlement statement and does not bind any employer, employee, authority, court, or advisor.

Calculator accuracy depends on the inputs. If you enter gross salary instead of basic salary, use the wrong start date, choose an incorrect end date, omit unpaid leave, or apply the tool to a special employment regime, the result may be inaccurate. Users should compare the estimate with contracts, payslips, salary revision letters, leave records, and employer settlement worksheets.

The calculator may not be suitable for DIFC, ADGM, government roles, domestic worker arrangements, special schemes, settlement agreements, disputed misconduct cases, or unusual contract structures. Where the employment framework is unclear, confirm the applicable rules before relying on any estimate.

Guides, articles, and resources

Our guides and articles are written to explain practical UAE employment questions in plain language. They may refer to common rules, examples, settlement workflows, and documents that are often relevant. They cannot cover every exception or future change. Employment laws, regulations, policies, and authority practices may change after publication.

We aim to keep the content useful and clear, but we do not guarantee that every page is complete, current, or applicable to your specific facts. If you notice a possible correction, contact info@gratuitydue.com. We welcome corrections, but we do not guarantee that every suggested change will be accepted or that we can respond to every message individually.

Internal links are provided to help users move between related topics, such as the calculator, UAE Labour Law guide, resource library, Privacy Policy, and contact page. External sources, if referenced, are provided for convenience and may change without notice.

Acceptable use

You agree to use the site lawfully and respectfully. You must not attempt to interfere with site functionality, bypass security, scrape or overload the site, submit malicious code, impersonate another person, or use forms to send spam or unlawful material. You must not submit third-party personal information unless you have the right to do so.

Do not submit confidential employment documents, legal claim files, passport copies, Emirates ID copies, bank statements, medical records, or other sensitive information through ordinary website forms. If you choose to include personal information in a message, you are responsible for ensuring that you have permission and that the information is appropriate to share.

You may use the site for personal learning, settlement preparation, HR explanation, and general business planning. You may link to public pages on the site. You may not copy, republish, sell, or present substantial portions of the site as your own service without permission.

Availability, accuracy, and limitations

We may update, change, pause, or remove parts of the site at any time. We do not guarantee uninterrupted access, error-free operation, or that every calculator result or article statement will remain current. The site is provided for general informational purposes on an “as available” basis.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, GratuityDue.com is not responsible for losses arising from reliance on calculator estimates, article guidance, unavailable pages, user input errors, outdated information, third-party services, or employment decisions made without proper verification. Users should confirm important matters with official sources, HR, payroll, or qualified advisors.

Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law. If a court or authority finds that part of these Terms is invalid, the remaining parts should continue to apply as far as possible.

Contact and corrections

If you have questions about these Terms, privacy, corrections, or the site generally, contact info@gratuitydue.com. Please keep messages concise and avoid sending confidential documents unless we specifically request them through an appropriate channel.

If your issue is urgent, involves an active employer dispute, or requires official intervention, contact MOHRE, the relevant free-zone authority, or a qualified advisor directly. GratuityDue.com cannot act as your representative, file a claim for you, or compel an employer to pay a settlement.
