Full-time employees get an RDO every month.
What are employees paid for the RDO?
An RDO is paid at a pro rata amount of the minimum weekly rate.
All employees are paid 20% of the minimum weekly rate for their RDO regardless of how they are normally paid.
This means that the RDO method of payment also applies to employees who:
- are normally paid the cents per kilometre method
- normally work long shifts
- work more than 38 hours a week.
