Award Rates 2026-27: Find Your Award Pay Rate, 30 Awards A to Z

This page is an A–Z reference of Australian modern award pay rates effective 1 July 2026, listing the adult Level 1 hourly rate, casual rate (with 25% loading) and 38-hour weekly pay for awards such as Aged Care, Retail, Hospitality and Fast Food. People land on it searching 'award rate' to check what a worker should be paid; the supplied content cuts off partway through the table, so the page's later sections (penalty and junior rates) can't be confirmed from the text provided.

Australian employers, small business owners, HR/payroll staff and employees checking minimum pay under a specific modern award.

A mention would suit payroll, rostering, HR or workforce-management software, or accounting and bookkeeping services aimed at Australian small businesses that need to apply award rates correctly. It would read most naturally beside the rate table or the casual-loading explanation, where a reader is turning a rate into an actual pay calculation; note that organic clicks are low (24 in 28 days), so direct traffic is modest despite high AI answer impressions (2,518).
