Detailed Breakdown:
Spluxly’s free online Severance Pay Calculator is a comprehensive employment termination tool designed for employees, HR professionals, and anyone who needs to estimate the total compensation payable upon the end of an employment contract. Severance pay entitlements depend on a combination of factors including the employee’s monthly gross salary, total years of service, contract type, reason for termination, accumulated unused vacation days, notice period compliance, and whether proportional bonus payments are included in the final settlement. Enter your monthly gross salary, years of service, accumulated vacation days, contract type — Permanent, Temporary, Internship, or Training — and termination reason — Unfair Dismissal, Fair Dismissal, Objective Dismissal, Voluntary Resignation, or End of Contract — and the calculator instantly computes the severance payment based on applicable days-per-year multipliers for the termination type, the final settlement covering proportional pending payments, and the total compensation to receive. A detailed breakdown table presents every component of the calculation individually for complete transparency. Whether you are verifying an employer’s termination offer, planning a voluntary resignation, or simply understanding your entitlements before a potential redundancy, this calculator gives you a reliable estimate in seconds. Completely free, no registration required.

How Severance Pay Is Calculated
Severance pay is calculated based on a daily wage rate multiplied by a days-per-year figure determined by the termination reason, applied to the total years of service.
Daily Wage Rate: Daily Rate = (Monthly Salary × 12) ÷ 365
Severance Payment by Termination Type:
| Termination Reason | Days per Year of Service |
|---|---|
| Unfair Dismissal | 33 days per year (standard post-2012 rate) |
| Fair Dismissal | 0 days (no statutory severance) |
| Objective Dismissal | 20 days per year |
| Voluntary Resignation | 0 days (no statutory severance) |
| End of Contract | 12 days per year |
Severance Formula: Severance Payment = Daily Rate × Days per Year × Years of Service
Example for a permanent employee with €2,500 monthly salary, 5 years of service, unfairly dismissed:
- Daily Rate: (€2,500 × 12) ÷ 365 = €82.19 per day
- Severance: €82.19 × 33 × 5 = €13,561.64
Final Settlement Components (when included):
- Pro-rated current month salary for days worked
- Proportional vacation pay for unused accumulated days
- Proportional bonus payment for the current year based on months worked
- Compensation for days without advance notice at the daily rate
Total to Receive: Total = Severance Payment + Final Settlement Components
