Youth wage change
16-19 year olds in new jobs will be able to be paid a new Youth Wage Rate from 1 May 2013.
The new rate ($11/hr) is set at 80% of the adult minimum rate ($13.75/hr).
It will apply to:
- 16-17 year olds in the first six months of a new job.
- 18-19 year olds who have been on a benefit for six or more months.
- 16-19 year olds on a recognised industry training course.
If you need assistance with implementing this new Youth Wage or advice on how it might apply to you give me a call on (04) 473 6850.
