Unused Annual Leave Pay Calculator (Korea)
Estimate payout for unused leave days based on Korean ordinary wage rules
If you're leaving a job with vacation days still on the books, or your Korean employer cashes out unused leave, this calculator shows what you can expect to receive. Enter your monthly base salary, fixed allowances, and annual bonus, and it derives your ordinary wage (tongsang imgeum) to compute your daily and hourly rate, then multiplies it by your unused leave days for an estimated payout. All calculations happen in your browser, so your salary details are never sent to a server.

- Check the estimated total payout at the top of the page along with your daily and hourly rate, then copy the results
FAQ
- Does the bonus count toward the leave payout?
- This calculator divides your annual bonus by 12 and includes it in your ordinary wage. Whether bonuses legally count as part of ordinary wage depends on your company's employment rules or collective agreement, so treat the result as an estimate.
- Where does the figure of 209 monthly hours come from?
- It's the standard Korean figure: 40 contracted hours plus 8 weekly holiday hours equals 48 hours a week, multiplied by the average number of weeks in a month (4.345). If your schedule differs, just enter your own number.
- Will the result match what I'm actually paid?
- Not necessarily — companies calculate ordinary wage differently, so this is an estimate for reference only. For an exact figure, check with your HR department or a certified labor attorney.
