Your take-home pay (or net pay) is what you receive after income tax, Medicare levy, and any other compulsory deductions are withheld from your gross salary. In Australia, your employer withholds tax from each pay and remits it to the ATO through the PAYG (Pay As You Go) system.
Under Australian law, employers must pay the Super Guarantee (SG) on top of your ordinary time earnings. For FY 2025-26 the SG rate is 12%. This means if your base salary is $80,000, your employer pays an additional $9,600 (12%) into your super fund.
Claim all eligible tax deductions (work-related expenses, home office costs, professional development), make salary sacrifice contributions to super (pre-tax, reducing your taxable income), and ensure you have adequate private health cover to avoid the Medicare Levy Surcharge if your income exceeds the threshold.
Your take-home pay is your gross salary minus income tax (using ATO marginal rates), Medicare levy (2%), any Medicare Levy Surcharge, and HELP/HECS repayments if applicable. Superannuation is paid on top of your salary by your employer and doesn't reduce your take-home pay.
It depends on your employment agreement. By law, employers must pay super on top of your Ordinary Time Earnings (OTE). However, some salary packages include super as part of the total package. Use the 'Super included in salary' toggle to see the difference.
The Super Guarantee rate is 11.5% for FY 2024-25 and increases to 12% for FY 2025-26. This is the minimum percentage of your ordinary time earnings that your employer must contribute to your super fund.
On a $100,000 salary in FY 2025-26, an Australian resident pays approximately $22,788 in income tax (after LITO) plus $2,000 Medicare levy, giving a take-home pay of around $75,212 per year or $2,893 per fortnight.
