What Is an Employee Salary Calculator and How Does It Work?
Bayzat's salary calculator is built to align with Saudi Labor Law, working out your net pay accurately after adding allowances and subtracting every applicable deduction. It shows you a clear breakdown of each component — basic salary, allowances, overtime pay, deductions and final net salary — with no complicated manual calculations.
Salary Components in Saudi Arabia
To calculate your net salary correctly, it helps to understand what a Saudi salary is made up of:
| Salary Component | Description |
|---|---|
| Basic Salary | The fixed amount that overtime hours and other entitlements are calculated from. |
| Housing Allowance | Usually provided to employees, and included with the basic salary when calculating the GOSI contribution. |
| Other Allowances | Transport, mobile and other benefits; normally excluded from the GOSI calculation. |
| Overtime Pay | Paid at 150% of the hourly rate for work beyond standard hours (40 hours per week). |
| Deductions | Include the GOSI contribution (for Saudi nationals) and any agreed loans or other deductions. |
The month used for payroll calculation in Saudi Arabia is always 30 days under Saudi Labor Law.
Net Salary Calculation Example
Non-Saudi employee (no GOSI contribution):
Non-Saudi employees are exempt from GOSI contributions (apart from a 2% rate paid by the employer only), so their net salary is usually the total of basic salary and allowances with no further deduction.
Saudi employee (with partial GOSI coverage):
The transport allowance is excluded from the GOSI calculation. The employer contributes SAR 1,292.50 (11.75%) under partial coverage.

Overtime Pay Calculation in Saudi Arabia
Under Saudi Labor Law, overtime is compensated at 150% of the regular hourly rate.
The formula:
- •Hourly rate: Basic salary ÷ 30 days ÷ 8 hours
- •Overtime pay: Hourly rate × 1.5 × number of overtime hours
Example: on a basic salary of SAR 6,000, the hourly rate is SAR 25 (6,000 ÷ 30 ÷ 8). For 10 overtime hours, that comes to SAR 375 (25 × 1.5 × 10).
GOSI and How It Affects Your Salary
The GOSI contribution is the largest deduction affecting a Saudi employee's net salary, ranging from 9.75% to 21.5% of the GOSI salary depending on the coverage type. Non-Saudi employees are exempt from this contribution.
| Coverage Type | Employer Rate | Employee Rate |
|---|---|---|
| Full coverage | 21.5% | 0% |
| Partial coverage | 11.75% | 9.75% |
| Non-Saudi employees | 2% | 0% |
Use the calculator above to see exactly what GOSI costs on your salary — both the employee and the employer share.
Frequently Asked Questions About Salary Calculation in Saudi Arabia
How do I calculate my net salary in Saudi Arabia?
Add your basic salary to your allowances (housing, transport) to get your gross salary, then subtract your GOSI contribution (if you are a Saudi national) and any other deductions. What is left is the net salary that reaches your bank account.
How is my monthly salary calculated as an employee?
Monthly salary is calculated on a 30-day basis under Saudi Labor Law, regardless of the actual number of days in the month. It covers the basic salary plus any fixed allowances agreed in the employment contract.
Do non-Saudi employees pay GOSI contributions?
No, non-Saudi employees are fully exempt from GOSI contributions. The employer alone pays a 2% rate on their behalf for occupational hazards insurance.
What is the difference between basic salary and gross salary?
The basic salary is the fixed amount agreed in the contract, while the gross salary is the basic salary plus all allowances (housing, transport and others) before any deductions.
How is overtime pay calculated in Saudi Arabia?
Overtime is paid at 150% of the regular hourly rate for hours worked beyond 40 hours per week. The hourly rate is the basic salary divided by 30 days, then by 8 hours.
