What is the minimum wage a student can earn by a part time job in Australia?

Question

Also will it be enough for an international student who is allowed 20hrs of work per week to take care of his education along with his daily needs?

Answer 1

well, you can get copped out with a min of $6 an hour. that definatly wont be enough for education and dayly needs... i suggest going for a good job that pays around $20 an hour... even then thats only 400 a week.  Make sure you save up big before you plan to come over

Answer 2

Im pretty sure the minimum part time wage is around about $6.00 an hour, depending on were you are working.

However if you work in Hospitality you will get paid a pretty good rate ( find out more here: http://www.pdfdownload.org/pdf2html/pdf2... )

However it will all depend on what your manager thinks about how long your working shift should last, how much time you have off, and what days suit best.

Also i dont think $6.00 an hour is going to cover what you need. I think your going to have to look into it a bit more and find out how much the costs are, and how much your going to need.

Answer 3

i think its twelve bucks an hour

Answer 4

Not  much its 5000 to 10000

Answer 5

Depends how old you are but basically it can be anything from $10-$20. I am 19 and i get paid $16 working in retail on a casual rate. Part time is less because you get annual leave and sick pay. I wouldnt accept anything less than $10

Answer 6

All the international students I know get money from their parents because the 20hrs is not enough. Just get a job that pays penalties and work on the weekends.

I wouldn't accept a job paying less than $16/hr and that would have to be with penalties and that would be as a last resort. Most jobs pay around $18/hr with penalties (thats for part time casual work).
