Latvia Unused Leave Compensation Calculator
Calculate the Latvian compensation for unused annual leave (atvaļinājuma kompensācija): leave days earned and their value from your average daily earnings.
Leave of 4 calendar weeks is 20 working days on a 5-day week; public holidays are not counted. Average daily earnings are the earnings of the last 6 months divided by the days worked, including bonuses and allowances.
What it does
Under section 149 of the Latvian Labour Law (Darba likums) every worker has at least 4 calendar weeks of paid annual leave, not counting public holidays. Leave cannot be swapped for money, except when the employment ends: then the employer must pay compensation for all the unused leave, calculated from average earnings (section 75).
How to use it
- Type the earnings and the days worked in the last 6 months.
- Type the annual leave days, the months worked this working year and the days already taken.
- Read the days left and the compensation.
The arithmetic runs in your browser. Nothing you type is sent anywhere and nothing is stored, so you can use these with real numbers.
