Frequently Asked Questions About Queensland Payslips

What deductions are required on a Queensland payslip?

Queensland payslips must include PAYG withholding (income tax), superannuation contributions (12% employer contribution), and the Medicare levy (2%). Additional deductions such as HECS-HELP repayments, salary sacrifice, and union fees should also be shown where applicable.

Is there a state income tax in Queensland?

No. Australia does not have state or territory income taxes. All employees across Queensland and every other Australian state and territory are taxed under the same national PAYG withholding brackets set by the ATO.

What is the minimum wage in Queensland in 2026?

The national minimum wage is $24.10/hour, which applies uniformly across all of Australia including Queensland. However, many employees are covered by Modern Awards that set higher minimum rates for specific industries and roles.

How much superannuation must employers pay in Queensland?
