Work out a New Zealand final pay: leave payout, notice and redundancy. Use for: 'what should my final pay be', 'how much annual leave am I owed when I leave', 'I am resigning, what do they owe me', 'do I get 8% holiday pay'. ASK HOW LONG THEY WORKED THERE FIRST. It decides the whole calculation: - Under 12 months: no leave entitlement has vested, so the Holidays Act pays 8% of ALL gross earnings during the employment. Set service="under12" and pass gross_earnings_total. A leave balance showing in a payroll system is NOT what they are owed. - 12 months or more: unused leave is paid out at a daily rate. Set service="over12" and pass leave_balance_days. Getting that branch wrong is the common mistake and it changes the answer completely. ALWAYS say what the total leaves out: ordinary wages for days actually worked are paid on top at the usual rate, and every figure is GROSS. The leave payout is then taxed as an extra pay, which is nz_lump_sum_tax_calculator. New Zealand has NO statutory redundancy pay. If they ask what redundancy they are entitled to, the answer is whatever their employment agreement says, and nothing if it says nothing. Args: annual_salary: Annual salary.
