CareIQ calculates SCHADS penalty rates and overtime from each completed shift for you to review against the Award, then turns it into a timesheet ready for Xero. You check the results and remain responsible for pay accuracy.
CareIQ calculates SCHADS pay from the shifts actually worked. Penalty rates, overtime and allowances are worked out from each clocked shift, timesheets are approved in CareIQ, and pay lines export to Xero. CareIQ updates award rates; your organisation reviews pay results and remains responsible for pay accuracy.
The SCHADS Award has afternoon, night, weekend and public holiday penalties, overtime thresholds and allowances. Getting it wrong by hand is how providers end up underpaying staff or facing a Fair Work back-pay claim.
The pay engine behind CareIQ rostering. It derives penalty rates, overtime and allowances from worked hours, so a pay run starts from the roster rather than from re-keyed timesheets. Your organisation reviews pay results before paying staff and remains responsible for pay accuracy.
Afternoon, night, Saturday, Sunday and public holiday penalties calculated from the worked shift - the highest single rate applies. You check the results against the Award.
Hours over 38 a week auto-split into the first two at time-and-a-half and the rest at double time, per the award.
Approved travel between shifts becomes paid travel time, with mileage reimbursed at the per-kilometre rate that applied on the day the travel happened, tracking the award rather than a fixed figure.
Unpaid meal breaks deducted, missed-break penalties added, and first aid allowance and superannuation shown on every timesheet.
Set your state holidays once and CareIQ calculates the public holiday penalty wherever a shift lands on one, for you to check.
Approve timesheets and export straight to Xero with your earnings rates mapped - no double entry.
The bank (ABA) file is labelled as paying gross pay, with PAYG withholding not netted off, and CareIQ keeps the paid date separate from the date the file was exported. A file being created is never recorded as a payment.
It applies the Social, Community, Home Care and Disability Services Award to each shift your staff work - penalty rates, overtime, casual loading and allowances - so pay is calculated from the roster and clock records rather than by hand.
