    Hi

    I finished my job on the 22nd of this month. My monthly salary is 2000. How much gross should I get paid. The only days I didn't work in the month were this week.

    Somewhere between €263.01 and €400, depending on how it's calculated.

    If your annual salary is €24,000, then 4/365 of that is €263.01.

    But they might calculate it on working days (let's say 253 working days per year), then it's 4/253, which is €379.45.

    If they work it by "working days in February" (which seems unlikely), then it would be €2,000 * 4/20 = €400

    I'd say it will be closer to the middle number, but it also depends on if there's any holidays owing in either direction.

    My head hurts trying to figure out where you got these numbers from..... We would need to know whats your average hours per week, which I would imagine is 40, then we get your salary per day as a result and calculate that by the amount of days you have worked.

    The figure I came up with was €1569, I did this by using the exact way my salary was calculated in my first month as I started mid way through.

    No idea where the guy above got between 2-400..... for 3 weeks work? Come on man

    Sorry, all those should be subtracted from the €2,000. They'd be the "missing" bit.

    Presuming you work a standard 5-day week:

    2000 x 12 = 24,000

    24,000/52 = 461.53

    461.53/5 = 92.31 per day

    If you finished on the 22nd you worked 16 days in February.

    16 x 92.31 = €1,476.92 gross.

    Obviously that doesn't account for any holiday pay etc. you may be due.

    And if you worked the first week in leu, to get at employment end, then maybe extra week wage.

    I got 1630. Its more than any of my calculations, so I'm not sure how he got that.

    That's not too far off my "working days" calculation. If they're applying tax credits for the whole month, that will make a little difference too (e.g. your tax credit is normally split between 20 working days, but now it's being split between a smaller number). You may also have been owed outstanding holidays or something?

    It seems like a reasonable enough number to me. Are you afraid that you were over/underpaid?

    I think it's accurate. Not 100% on maths, but I'm definitely not being shafted.

    Well, if they happened to calculate it using % of month worked, you will have worked 16 out of 20 days in the month, so 16/20 = 80%, and 80% of 2000 EUR is 1600 EUR, so that would not be far off.

    Luck would be on your side in that case of course, as February is a short month!

    Or alternatively as others have said you have been paid for some benefits which you still have in hand such as untaken holidays.
