Penalty and overtime rates

These are stated as a percentage of the ordinary hourly rate — a total, not an addition. 150% means one and a half times the ordinary rate, not the ordinary rate plus 150%.

The Fair Work Commission publishes these by employment type rather than by classification, so find the group that describes your employment. Which group applies to you depends on your employment type, your age and whether you work shifts — this page does not decide that for you.
