Working full time doesn’t automatically mean you get paid a salary, unless it’s specified in your employment contract. Certain industries or roles - retail, for example - will pretty much always be paid hourly in full time positions.

I suppose I don't mind because we finish early most days and I hate work consuming my life

Even salaried jobs would reduce the first pay if you start part way through the pay cycle. What did your contract say? Plenty of full time jobs pay hourly. The casual loading is to compensate for missing leave entitlements not because they are paid hourly.

So maybe I'm getting all the entitlements a just no loading I wonder what be worth more... Annual leave, sick days, public holidays OR 20% loading at extra $5 an hour

If you're good at saving money, you can "pay yourself" to take time off if you want that extra loading as a casual.

You have an employment contract right?


benji7117

Yea but I gave it back to them


biscuitcarton

You should have a copy as well legally.

If you're on a salary, and the company closes for 2 weeks and you don't take paid leave, you don't get paid. Full time salary doesn't mean 'get paid 40 hours even if I'm not at work'.

Keep in mind the pay cycle. The pay week might be (for example) Friday to Thursday which would make your first pay short a day. Also check your start date, they might not have started you on the public holiday.
