Pro rata salary
Pro rata salary = full-time equivalent salary × FTE fraction

Worked example

Working 22.8 hours against a 38-hour full-time week (a 0.6 FTE) on an $80,000 FTE salary gives a pro rata salary of $48,000 and 2.4 weeks of annual leave.

Assumptions

  • Assumes the standard 4-week NES annual leave entitlement.
  • Superannuation guarantee is calculated on actual ordinary earnings, so it scales automatically.

How this calculator works

Enter the full-time equivalent annual salary, full-time weekly hours and your actual part-time weekly hours to calculate your pro rata salary and pro rata annual leave entitlement. This shows your fraction of a full-time equivalent (FTE) role.

Frequently asked questions

How is pro rata salary calculated?

Pro rata salary is the full-time salary multiplied by your hours as a fraction of full-time hours, known as your FTE fraction.

Do part-time employees get less annual leave?

Yes, part-time employees accrue annual leave pro rata based on hours worked, though the four-week entitlement still applies proportionally.

Is superannuation also pro rata?

Superannuation guarantee is calculated on your actual ordinary earnings, so it naturally scales with your part-time pay.

Actual entitlements can depend on your award, enterprise agreement, contract, employment status and individual circumstances.
