About this tool
Choose the direction, enter the rate and the loading (25 percent is common). You see the casual rate or the base rate and the difference. Casual loading replaces paid leave entitlements, so the higher rate is not a bonus.
Frequently asked questions

25 percent is common in many awards, but your award or agreement sets the rate.
