The Fair Work Commission (FWC) has announced its annual wage review decision for the upcoming 2024/2025 financial year. The Commission has decided to increase the National Minimum Wage (NMW) by 3.75% and minimum rates of pay in modern awards by 3.75%.
The increase to the NMW and the minimum rates in modern awards that apply to osteopathic practices – including the Health Professionals and Support Services Award 2020 – will apply from the first full pay period commencing on or after 1 July 2024.
