Annual Leave Calculator

When to use?

Use it to roughly gauge how many annual leave days have accrued since you were hired, or to plan how to use your leave.

How to use

• Enter your hire date.
• Choose a reference date (today or any date).
• Your tenure and estimated leave days are shown.

Input Explanation

Enter your hire date and the reference date for the calculation (usually today or year-end).

Calculation Basis

Based on Korea's Labor Standards Act: up to 11 days for under one year (1 per month), 15 base days at one year, plus 1 extra every two years (up to 25).

Usage Examples

• Check approximate leave days - Quickly see estimated annual leave based on your hire date.
• Plan vacation - Gauge your remaining leave to plan your schedule in advance.
• Review timing for a move - See how leave grows with tenure to time a job change.

Examples

• Hired 2022-01-01, reference 2024-01-01 → 31 days total (11 + 15 + 15)
• Hired 2023-07-01, reference 2024-07-01 → 15 days for one full year

Cautions

• Actual leave varies by company rules, attendance rate, and work arrangement. Confirm exact figures with HR.
• This is a simple estimate from your inputs and a general formula; verify officially before any real or commercial use.
