About My Overtime Pay
Built to help Australian employees understand whether they may have a possible unpaid entitlement claim.
Our purpose
Many Australian workers placed on light duties or suitable duties after a workplace injury are paid only their base rate, with overtime, penalty rates, and allowances dropped. In many cases, those entitlements should be considered when calculating pre-injury average weekly earnings.
We help you check, estimate, and organise your evidence so you can take an informed next step — whether that's contacting payroll, your union, the Fair Work Ombudsman, your insurer, or a qualified workplace lawyer.
"I worked 12 hours of overtime every week for years. After my back injury I was put on light duties and only paid my base rate. Using a checker like this helped me see the gap, gather payslips, and raise it with my union. The conversation with payroll changed completely."
A note on legal status
My Overtime Pay is an information service. We do not provide legal advice, and we do not promise recovery. Whether you are entitled to any payment depends on your award or enterprise agreement, your employment contract, workers compensation rules in your state, payroll records, and legal review.
