For nurses · Ward rosters & Pay Check
Built for registered nurses, enrolled nurses, and midwives. The master roster your NUM emails out, turned into a calendar that checks your pay.
The pain
The parts of the job that are genuinely hard to verify, and the ones payroll gets wrong most often.
The ward roster is an .xlsx with merged cells, colour coding, and multi-week columns. Copying it into a calendar by hand takes an evening.
NSW nurses: Saturday 150%, Sunday 175%. Overtime 150% for the first two hours Mon-Sat, 200% after; Sunday overtime 200% for all hours. VIC has its own rules in the 2024-28 ANMF agreement.
The 10pm-onward night shift loading means your hourly rate changes part-way through. If the roster shows a single block, pay verification needs to split that block at the boundary.
When a public holiday lands on a rostered day off, you're entitled to a substitute day. Easy to miss when payroll is processing hundreds of rosters.
