Goochie Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 As we all know, most people on a salary in the UK are paid once a month, generally towards the end of the month. How does it work in Australia? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quoll Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Fortnightly usually Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paisleylass Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Yep, hubby and I are both paid fortnightly. It so happens they are alternate fortnights so we have money coming in every Thursday - which is nice! Agencies though tend to pay weekly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MicheleW Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 I think it all depends on the company. I have been paid monthly in every job I have ever had in Australia, usually the 15th of the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kazzarazza Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Four jobs over 21 years and all the same - monthly and on the 15th. Think that's normal for staff positions in SA in most industries. Govt usually pay every fortnight. Operational workers usually get paid weekly. Cheers, Kazza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish.01 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 In my experience fortnightly is more common in govt jobs, monthly in private and if you're paid weekly you are probably in a trade or retail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
