Does anyone have any idea what BIG W pays? I'm wondering, since I will be working there soon.

Thanks in advance.

Casual 18 year old gets around $12 an hour... I'm assuming thats the information you were after

yeh thanks Would you know also, how much the wage may increase with every year and so on?

It depends really, there is a website somewhere that outlines how much you should be getting paid by them at what age, I think it's anywhere from 50c to.. something, I'm not sure.
I've only just recently come off permanent part time to casual, but the increases each year on PPT were around $1 or so..

I was looking for a website earlier today on google, but couldn't find a thing, so i posted the thread.

This is a little vague but it might help. Basically whatever percentage is next to your age is the percentage amount of an adults weekly wage that you might get, I'm not sure whether that helps you or not

Look at the adult's weekly pay
find the percentage next to your name
work out that percentage of the adult's pay - that is the weekly pay for your age.

the weekly wage for an adult will be based on a number of hours, maybe 40 hours. you have to find the number of hours written somewhere.
if it is 40 hours, divide the amount a person your age would get per week by 40 to find out the hourly rate

casuals normally get an amount of loading on that, maybe 20 or 30%, so if you find out the amount extra that casuals get paid you can find out your hourly rate.
