Bahrain End-of-Service Calculator (2026)
Bahrain's end-of-service pay grows with your service: half a month's wage a year at first, then a full month a year. Since March 2024 part of it is paid by the Social Insurance Organization (SIO). Enter your wage and service to see the total.
Based on Articles 47 and 116 of Bahrain's Labour Law (Law No. 36 of 2012) and Prime Minister's Decision No. 109 of 2023. Your employer pays the part for service before 1 March 2024; the Social Insurance Organization (SIO) pays the part from 1 March 2024. Resigning does not lower the amount. This is an estimate: confirm with your employer or the SIO.
How the calculator works
- You get half a month's wage for each of the first three years of service and a full month's wage for each year after that. Part years count in proportion.
- The wage is your last basic wage plus any social allowance.
- Your employer pays the part for service before 1 March 2024. The SIO pays the part for service from 1 March 2024, funded by the monthly contributions your employer pays for you.
Frequently asked questions
Does resigning reduce the amount?
No. Bahrain does not cut end-of-service pay when you resign, unlike Saudi Arabia or Kuwait.
How do I claim the SIO part?
Once your contract ends, you claim the amount for service from March 2024 from the SIO. The SIO part cannot be more than the contributions paid for you.
Does this apply to Bahraini workers?
This end-of-service pay is for workers who are not covered by the old-age pension, which mainly means expatriates. Bahraini workers are covered by the pension system.
