For a newly hired employee, accruing of the vacation days and accumulation of vacation pay is not performed during the initial period of employment when the employee has no right for vacations, for instance, in UAE the employees can have vacation only when their length of service exceeds six months.

     Vac_Days_per_Year *6/12

For example, a newly hired employee Marat can request a paid vacation starting his 7th month of employment. When the 6th month of employment ends, Marat will have 12 days of paid vacation. If he asked for accumulation of his vacation pay in the employment contract, the accumulated amount will match 12 days of paid vacation. If he requests vacation after his 11 months of employment, he will get 22 paid days; however, after completing 13 months, he is entitled to 32.5 days of paid vacations, that is, 30 days for the first year and 2.5= 30/12 days for the 13th month.

Note. Any remaining balances of vacation days are moved to the following year.
