How much money does a practicing nurse earn in NSW Australia?

Answer 1

Salaries in Australia vary slightly from state to state but each states' Government fixes all doctors' salaries. After overtime and on-call work these salaries will be approximately 15-25% higher. Intern: $45,000 - $55,000 Resident/ SHO: $55,000 - $85,000 Registrar: $70,000 - $98,000 Consultant (Specialist): $115,000 - $240,000 These are all approximate figures and in actual fact, the more hours you choose to work, the more you will earn. Basic salary assumes a working week of 38 hours - anything after this will be paid at penalty rates (usually double-pay), so for those looking to increase their salary the option of working extra hours (which is commonly available at many hospitals) can substantially increase your income. Salary Packaging is a tax minimisation strategy available to all public hospital employees in Australia. It allows you to access up to 30% of your income as tax-free depending on the hospital you work in. This is a system used by almost all hospital employees to substantially increase their take home salary.
