Jack78 - Thanks for the reply, but my question is much deeper than that. I am aware of the formula for how ESG is calculated but I need to know specifically what the Ministry calls "Basic Wage"...will they only look at the contract that was filed with the Ministry or will they consider the amount that I can PROVE that I was ACTUALLY paid? Also, if it is indeed based on the Arabic version only and I do not trust that my employer is showing me a legitimate copy of my Arrabic contract, can I ask the Ministry to retrieve and show me their copy?
