How it is calculated

Compensation = average daily earnings × number of unused vacation days. The formula is exactly the same as for ordinary vacation pay — the only difference is the occasion: this is a termination payout rather than paid time off.

The number of unused days depends on how many vacation days the employee earned over their worked time and how many they've already used — the calculator doesn't compute that, it takes the finished day count as an input.

As with ordinary vacation pay, average daily earnings should come from a payslip or be computed separately under the applicable reference-period rules — the calculator doesn't try to derive it from a salary.
