How this is calculated

Pay is calculated as ordinary hours × base rate, plus a 25% loading for casuals (in lieu of paid leave) when selected. Overtime hours are paid at 150% of the base rate for the first two hours and 200% after that - this matches the most common Modern Award provisions but always check your specific award schedule.

Superannuation is calculated on ordinary time earnings at the Superannuation Guarantee rate of 12% (effective from 1 July 2025).

PAYG withholding uses the ATO weekly tax table brackets for residents claiming the tax-free threshold. This is an estimate only - the exact amount depends on any Study and Training Support Loan (HELP/SFSS) debts, Medicare levy variations and additional offsets declared on the TFN declaration.

Rates change each financial year. The tool uses the current 2025-26 figures. For binding pay calculations, always reference the Fair Work Ombudsman.
