“How long have you worked here?”

You: “Uhhh… like 3 years? Maybe 3 and a half? Honestly, I’m not sure.”

Them: “We need the exact years, months, and days for your gratuity calculation.”

You: Panic mode activated.

The Solution

Enter your employment start date and this calculator tells you the exact length of service down to the day.

How to Use It

Step 1: Enter Start Date Select when your employment or service began.

Step 2: Enter End Date (Optional)

• Leave it blank to calculate up to today
• Or pick a specific end date if the service has ended

Step 3: Calculate Hit “Calculate Length of Service” and get:

• Total years of service (with decimals)
• Breakdown: X years, Y months, Z days
• Total days worked
• Total weeks worked
• Full start and end dates formatted

Use Cases

• HR departments: Calculating gratuity, pension, or severance
• Employees: Checking eligibility for promotions or benefits
• Contractors: Tracking total engagement duration
• Students: Calculating internship or NYSC service length
• Relationships: Okay, you can use it for anniversaries too

Why This Matters

In Nigeria, many employment benefits are tied to exact length of service. Gratuity, pension contributions, and leave accrual all depend on knowing precisely how long you’ve worked.

Tip

Use this before salary negotiations. Saying “I’ve been here 4 years, 7 months, and 12 days” hits different from “about 4 years.”

The Win

Never guess your tenure again. Get exact figures for HR paperwork, benefits calculations, and bragging rights.
