Work out your years of submarine service
Rate of payment
If you’re in SERCAT 6, one day equals every 8 hours of duty in your flexible service determination, up to 80 hours per fortnight. The 8 hours do not need to be worked on the same day.
Example
You have 4 years of submarine service.
You performed 100 days of submarine service in the financial year.
To work out your payment for the year:
- Calculate the daily amount for your length of service
- $35,000 ÷ 365 = $95.89 a day
- Multiply the daily amount by the number of days you were eligible in the financial year
- $95.89 × 100 for the year = $9,589
Your amount of submarine capability assurance payment for the financial year is $9,589.
The amount is paid as part of your salary and may be taxed.
