Understand the result
Results depend on the employment regime and inputs. Domestic work has specific rules in articles 258–265; an amount from the general scale does not establish that a household owes it.
Frequently asked questions
What does this tool calculate?
A general-regime scenario: notice under articles 76 and 79 and severance under article 80. It does not automatically apply that scale to domestic work. The actual activity, agreement and reason for leaving matter.
How is the amount calculated?
Monthly compensation is divided by 23.83 and multiplied by the relevant days. Notice is payable only where applicable and not worked. Unused leave and the Christmas bonus are considered separately.
What about a mutual agreement?
This calculator assumes 50% of the severance amount for its mutual-agreement scenario. This is a negotiation assumption, not a statutory percentage or a substitute for the parties’ agreement.
Important notice
These calculations are estimates based on current Dominican legislation. For specific cases, consult a labour lawyer or the Ministry of Labour.
