Open Annual & Personal Leave calculatorLong service leave is the one entitlement Victoria sets for itself. Under the Long Service Leave Act 2018 (VIC) you reach 6.07 weeks at 7 years, with a pro-rata payout available from 7 years, worked out on VIC long service leave. Whether that pro-rata amount is actually paid depends on why the job ended, which differs by state and is set out in pro-rata long service leave. Victoria also gazettes 14 public holidays in 2026, listed with penalty rates on VIC public holidays.
Everything else comes from the National Employment Standards and is identical in every state: 4 weeks of annual leave, 10 days of personal and carer's leave, unpaid parental leave, and redundancy pay on the section 119 scale. When a job ends, final pay brings the notice, unused leave and redundancy components together. The rules themselves are explained in the National Employment Standards guide.
Federal annual leave is identical everywhere. State LSL and public holidays differ.
Industry awards layered on top of the NES. Each award has its own penalty rates, leave loading and (sometimes) RDO arrangements.
This VIC calculator is built directly from the Long Service Leave Act 2018 (VIC), the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth), and current VIC Industrial Relations guidance.
