Article 59: after one year's service, at least 30 days' paid annual leave, accruing at two and a half days per month; workers with less than a year get a pro-rated entitlement. Leave cannot be waived and may be paid in cash only under Article 59/61 (on termination, or where the employer schedules it and the worker refuses in writing - Article 61(d)).

Frequently asked questions
- How much annual leave do I get in Bahrain?
- Article 59, Labour Law No. 36 of 2012. Entitlement: 30 days after 0 years.
- Do weekends and public holidays count differently?
- Yes in most Gulf states — rest-day and public-holiday work usually carries a higher uplift than a normal weekday, and some laws give a compensatory day off instead of cash. The rule field on this page lists the normal-day rate; read the article for the holiday rate.
- Is this based on basic salary or total salary?
- It depends on the country and on what your contract calls 'wage' — each country page labels the basis its labour law uses. Use the monthly figure your payslip shows for that basis.
