When is the leave salary paid?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As outlined in the UAE labor law, employees are entitled to receive their leave pay before commencing annual leave.

Does the leave salary apply if the contract is terminated?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the contract is terminated, the leave salary calculations are based on the fundamental basic salary. Any outstanding leaves will also be computed solely on the basic salary.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Q6.
