Leave calculator — entitlement & cash equivalentTable of contents
Proportional leave applies when employment does not cover the full year. It most often concerns a job change or starting the first job mid‑year.
The proportional rule is used when:
Each employer grants leave only for the actual period of employment.
The basic method is 1/12 of annual entitlement for each full month worked. Then you apply:
In the first year, leave accrues monthly. After completing the year, in the next calendar year leave is granted in advance.
When changing jobs, leave is split between employers. The new employer grants leave for the remaining period in the year, taking into account days already used.
For part‑time employment, the entitlement is reduced proportionally. In practice, calculate the time proportion first and then apply the part‑time ratio.
Partial days are rounded up to a full day. This prevents under‑allocation of leave.
An employee entitled to 26 days starts in July. For 6 months they get 13 days. With a 1/2‑time job, the entitlement becomes 7 days after rounding.
Use the leave calculator to check proportional leave and cash equivalent.
