Overview

The Annual Leave Pay Calculator computes compensation for unused annual paid leave under Korea's Labor Standards Act (Article 60). It multiplies the daily ordinary wage by unused leave days, and also shows the statutory leave entitlement based on years of service.

Formula

Annual Leave Pay = Daily Ordinary Wage × Unused Leave Days

• Daily Ordinary Wage = Monthly Ordinary Wage ÷ Monthly working days (or ÷ 209 × 8)
• Leave entitlement:
  - Under 1 year: 1 day per month of perfect attendance (max 11 days)
  - 1+ years: 15 days + 1 additional day every 2 years (max 25 days)
  - Year 3: 16 days, Year 5: 17 days … Year 21+: 25 days
