Salary and Role Alignment
Grey. The employer refers to the applicable Fitness Award but does not state the actual hourly rate or classification, so salary alignment cannot be fully assessed under the IUSCA IQF Role Classification & Salary Alignment methodology. IUSCA Indicative Minimum Salary Benchmark: AUD $40 per hour plus superannuation for casual delivery, subject to applicable award minima and casual loading. This reflects Level 4 coached delivery in a performance-sport setting and the time required for club attendance; the employer states a three-hour minimum payment per session.
