Im sure theres some official stats somewhere, but in my experience ur average retail job is around 40k, tradie 50-60k, and anyone with a uni degree would be selling themselves short working for less than 65k.

I just saw on The Australian website (I think) that the average wage hovers around $1200 a week gross.

So thats $62,400 a year before tax.

Depends on age and experience ,average pay is only a guide some get more some less

Also depends where you are able to work, what qualifications you have etc etc.

I'm a plastering sub-contractor and my gross pay varies year-to year (dependent on how much work is on). Last year I turned over $106,000. Don't forget that I supply all my own materials and I don't get holiday pay, sick pay or super. The figure looks good on paper but after my expenses it's not that great.

Also factor in your age. Been junior (under 21) the pay is ****. I am fairly confident it's 75% of the award wage of been over 21. All i know is i am 20 and i am on 27,500 and year and it is balls. BUT i am applying for the police force so i have that to look forward to in the upcoming month
