How it is calculated
Vacation pay = average daily earnings × number of vacation days. The multiplication is the same everywhere — the real complexity usually hides in how average daily earnings itself is computed: the reference period, what's included and excluded, is governed by a specific country's labor law and can change.
That's why the calculator doesn't try to derive average daily earnings from a salary or work schedule — that would only be correct for one jurisdiction and would go stale quickly. Take the average earnings figure from a payslip or compute it separately under the applicable rules.
The same formula is used for unused vacation compensation on termination — the only difference is plugging in the number of unused days instead of planned ones.
