On 6 June 2017, the Fair Work Commission (FWC) announced the Annual Wage Review 2016-17 Decision, awarding a 3.3 per cent increase to all modern Award wages and lifting the national minimum wage to $694.90 or $18.29 per hour from 1 July.
Updated Wage Bulletins will be made available once the Awards have been formally varied by FWC to give effect to the decision.
