Worked different rates this week?

Check the whole week in one go.

If you had ordinary hours plus Saturday, Sunday, overtime or shift hours, use the weekly award checker. It loads the available verified rate lines for your selected job so you can enter hours beside each one and compare the expected gross with your actual gross pay.

What this checks

One selected hourly rate at a time.

The checker compares your entered hourly rate with the selected rate for the job, classification, employment type and work condition. If you need to combine several different conditions in one week, use the weekly award pay checker.

What it does not decide

This is not a legal backpay calculation.

A job title alone may not decide award coverage or classification. Enterprise agreements, junior/apprentice rules, all-purpose allowances, higher duties, breaks, overtime patterns and other rules can change the result. Confirm important decisions against the linked official Fair Work source.
