Albanese Govt Budget 2: Fairer Wages for Aged Care Workers

Department of Health

The Albanese Labor Government's second Budget will deliver a record 15% pay increase for aged care workers across Australia.

The biggest ever pay rise for aged care workers will benefit more than 250,000 people and reflects the intent of the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety's final report to improve remuneration for aged care staff.

This is a key part of our plan to create more opportunities for more Australians by investing in health and aged care.
