Shift It handles the complexity and compares your result to your payslip.

NT Doctors in Training 2022–25

Calculate NT junior doctor pay under the DIT Enterprise Agreement 2022–25. Covers Royal Darwin, Katherine, Tennant Creek, and Alice Springs hospitals, with remote locality loadings and on-call and recall provisions. Shift It tracks each component and compares to your payslip.

The NSW Ambulance Paramedic Award covers ambulance officers, intensive care paramedics, and flight paramedics. On-call and recall provisions are a central complexity, particularly in rural areas with high call-back rates.

Community Services

SCHADS – Social, Community, Home Care and Disability Services

The SCHADS Award (MA000100) covers disability support workers, community workers, and home care employees. It is one of the most complex Modern Awards, with sleepover provisions, broken shift allowances, and travel-between-clients requirements that are frequently missed.

Hospitality

Fast Food Industry Award

Key complexities include evening and late-night penalty windows, junior rate scales (from 40% of the adult rate for under-16s up to 90% for 20-year-olds), and public holiday penalties.
