Frequently asked questions
Should I include unpaid leave in weeks worked?
Reduce weeks worked if you take significant unpaid leave, since your salary is spread over fewer paid weeks.
Is this a net or gross hourly rate?
This is a gross (before tax) hourly rate; see the Hourly Rate After Tax calculator for a net figure.
Does this include superannuation?
No, this converts base salary only; check whether your salary is quoted inclusive or exclusive of superannuation.
Actual entitlements can depend on your award, enterprise agreement, contract, employment status and individual circumstances.
