Pay Check

Pay Check for the NT DIT Award

The NT DIT Enterprise Agreement 2022–25 covers junior doctors at Royal Darwin, Katherine, Tennant Creek, and Alice Springs hospitals. It includes remote locality loadings and on-call and recall provisions with high call-back rates at regional facilities.

What Shift It handles

The complexity behind the NT DIT Award.

Shift It reads the award so you don't have to. Here's what it accounts for.

Penalty rates

Every shift is split at rate-change boundaries — 10pm, midnight, weekends, public holidays — so each hour is rated at exactly the right loading.

On-call & recall

On-call allowances and recall payments — including minimum engagement periods and travel time — are calculated per event and added to your total.

Payslip comparison

Enter the gross on your payslip. Shift It shows whether it matches your calculated entitlement — and if not, exactly how much is missing.

Common questions

NT DIT Award pay questions, answered.

Things workers actually search for — with straight answers.

Do NT junior doctors receive a remote locality allowance?

Yes. The NT DIT EA includes a remote locality loading that varies by facility.1 Shift It applies it automatically based on your selected health service.

How does on-call pay work at NT hospitals?

On-call allowances are paid per rostered on-call period. Each recall attracts a separate payment at the applicable penalty rate, subject to minimum engagement periods.1

How is overtime averaged under the NT DIT EA?

Overtime is averaged across a defined roster cycle rather than triggered per shift. Total hours exceeding the cycle threshold attract overtime rates.1
