Why these rates are different
A TFN employee rate, PTY/ABN subcontractor rate and employer charge-out rate measure different things. These calculators help put super, paid leave, public holidays, overtime and business on-costs into the same comparison.
For permanent employees, paid public holidays are treated as paid non-working time. To avoid double-counting wages, the calculator leaves the annual wage calculation unchanged and reduces PTY/ABN or employer billable hours by the public-holiday hours instead.
Workers
Compare the value of TFN employment against a PTY/ABN subcontractor rate.
Subcontractors
Work backwards from an offered PTY/ABN rate to see the approximate equivalent TFN rate.
Employers
Estimate the real employee cost and the charge-out rate needed to cover on-costs and margin.
Important: These calculators are rough comparison tools. They do not determine whether a worker is legally an employee or contractor and are not tax, legal, accounting or employment advice.
