This calculator works out Russian vacation pay (отпускные) from the pay of the last 12 months, by the Regulation on average earnings approved by Government Decree 540 of 24 April 2025, which replaced Decree 922 from 1 September 2025 and kept its 29.3 rule.
Twelve full months. Average daily earnings are the pay divided by 12 and by 29.3, the average number of calendar days in a month. Vacation pay is that figure times the calendar days of vacation.
Leaving the job. Switch to unused leave: each month of the working year earns 28 ÷ 12 days, half a month or more counts as a month, 11 months earn the full 28, and earlier unused days are added. The days are paid at the same average daily earnings (Labour Code art. 127).

Vacation pay equals the average daily earnings times the calendar days of vacation. Average daily earnings are the pay of the last 12 months divided by 12 and by 29.3. On 80,000 roubles a month that is 2,730.38 roubles a day, so 28 days pay 76,450.64 roubles before NDFL.
The figure 29.3 is the average monthly number of calendar days that para 10 of the Regulation on average earnings sets for vacations counted in calendar days. Twelve full months therefore count 351.6 days, and 960,000 roubles of pay over them gives 2,730.38 roubles a day.
Sick leave days and the sick pay for them are taken out of the 12-month period. The month with sick leave becomes incomplete and counts 29.3 divided by its calendar days times the days worked: 10 days worked in a 30-day month count 9.77 days instead of 29.3.
Average monthly earnings of a worker who worked the full norm cannot be below the minimum wage, 27,093 roubles a month from 1 January 2026. At that floor the average day is 924.68 roubles, so 14 days of vacation pay at least 12,945.52 roubles.
