Pro rata salary for days a week of a standard 5-day week, with take-home pay after tax and Medicare in 2026–27.
| Days a week | $70,000 full-time | $90,000 full-time | $120,000 full-time |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 day | $14,000 ($14,000 after tax) | $18,000 ($18,000 after tax) | $24,000 ($23,830 after tax) |
| 2 days | $28,000 ($27,230 after tax) | $36,000 ($33,310 after tax) | $48,000 ($42,400 after tax) |
| 3 days | $42,000 ($38,065 after tax) | $54,000 ($46,390 after tax) | $72,000 ($58,440 after tax) |
| 4 days | $56,000 ($47,720 after tax) | $72,000 ($58,440 after tax) | $96,000 ($74,760 after tax) |
| 4.5 days | $63,000 ($52,375 after tax) | $81,000 ($64,560 after tax) | $108,000 ($82,920 after tax) |
Multiply the full-time salary by your hours and divide by the full-time hours. For example, $90,000 × 22.8 ÷ 38 = $54,000 for three days a week.
It means the salary shown is the full-time equivalent, and you'll be paid the share that matches your hours. A $90,000 pro rata job at 0.6 FTE pays $54,000.
Not quite. Because tax is progressive, a lower salary keeps a bigger share after tax. At three days a week on $90,000 full-time, you'd take home $46,390, which is 66% of the full-time $70,680.
Yes. Employer super is at least 12% of what you earn, and annual and personal leave build up in proportion to your ordinary hours.
Divide the annual salary by 365 and multiply by the days you're employed, or by 52 and multiply by the weeks. Tax on a part year is usually lower than the withholding suggests, so you may get a refund.
