Plus 4 years out of school, Year 10
Minimum pay rate under the Manufacturing and Associated Industries and Occupations Award 2020.
No rate is currently published for this classification. The Fair Work Commission holds earlier rates for it but none that applies today.
What this rate has been
Award rates change on 1 July each year, and can change at other times when the Fair Work Commission makes a decision. If you are checking an older payslip, compare it against the rate that applied then.
| From | Hourly | Weekly |
|---|---|---|
| 2018-07-01 | $13.65 | $518.70 |
| 2017-07-01 | $13.19 | $501.20 |
| 2016-07-01 | $12.77 | $485.20 |
| 2015-07-01 | $12.47 | $473.80 |
Hourly figures marked in this table are calculated from the published weekly rate over 38.00 ordinary hours. The Fair Work Commission does not publish an hourly rate for every classification.
What this rate is, and is not
This is the minimum ordinary hourly rate — the rate for ordinary hours, before penalty rates, overtime, allowances or loadings. An employer can pay more than the minimum. They cannot pay less.
Rates at other times
These are published as a percentage of the ordinary hourly rate, and no ordinary rate is published for this classification today, so there is nothing here to apply them to. The table as the Commission publishes it is on the MA000010 page.
Before you compare this to your own pay
Classification depends on the duties you actually perform, not your job title. If the work you do does not match this classification, this is not the rate to compare against — and that is the single most common reason a comparison goes wrong.
This page also does not account for your hours, whether you are casual, part-time or full-time, penalty rates for the times you worked, overtime, allowances, superannuation, or anything else that appears on a payslip.
If your own figures do not match what you expected, the Fair Work Ombudsman gives free advice and accepts anonymous reports.
