We’ve done our annual review of our payment rate for minimum rate of weekly compensation payable. We’ve made some changes that are coming soon.

Full-time workers with low earnings, and clients entitled to loss of potential earnings, will receive a change to their payments from 1 April.

Changes to other client payment rates, grants and allowances will occur on 1 July.

What this means for clients

The new gross minimum rate of weekly compensation payable to a full-time earner will be $766.40 (equal to 80% of the adult minimum wage of $958.00 for a 40-hour week).
