What this calculator covers

Built for casual retail workers

Casual Pay is designed for casual retail employees of all ages under the General Retail Industry Award (MA000004). Enter your shifts and get an accurate gross pay estimate in seconds.

Shift pay

Calculates pay for each individual shift including penalty rates for evenings, weekends and public holidays.

Daily overtime

Overtime kicks in automatically after 9 ordinary hours in a day — at 175% for the first 3 hours, then 225%.

Weekly overtime

The 38-hour weekly ordinary hours cap resets every Monday. Hours beyond that are overtime regardless of daily totals.

All casual ages

Applies adult rates (21+) and junior rates (under 21) based on your age — just select your age bracket.

How it works

Three steps to your pay

No spreadsheets, no award PDFs. Just your shifts.

1

Set up your role

Pick your state, age, classification level and when your work week starts. We handle the award.

2

Add your shifts

Pop in up to 5 shifts for the week with start and end times — takes seconds.

3

See your pay

Get a clear breakdown by rate and by shift, with the maths behind every dollar.
