Live scenarios
How much is the sleepover allowance?
Fitz returns the exact SCHADS sleepover allowance from the current Pay Guide, plus what happens if the worker is called to active duty during the sleepover.
What is the minimum engagement for a social & community services shift?
SCHADS sets different minimums by stream. Fitz applies the right minimum for the stream and flags any roster that breaches it.
Do broken shifts attract an allowance?
Yes — SCHADS pays a broken-shift allowance that depends on the number of unpaid breaks. Fitz applies the correct one automatically.
