What transport driver pay looks like

Community transport drivers employed by NDIS and aged care providers are commonly paid under the SCHADS Award home care stream, typically at Level 1 to 2 depending on duties and any care responsibilities. Independent contractors (ABN) set their own rates with the provider or participant and are not covered by award minimums.

Casual employees receive a 25% loading on the ordinary rate (about $34 to $44 an hour on weekdays), with casual weekend and public holiday rates of 1.75x, 2.25x and 2.75x the ordinary rate. Figures are full-time and part-time minimums for employees; independent contractors set their own rates.

How that compares, as of 1 July 2026

$27.28–$34.42

an hour · SCHADS Award minimum, home care employee, Level 1 to 2, full-time (Fair Work pay guide)

$73.58

an hour · NDIS price limit for standard weekday self-care support: the most a provider can bill a participant's plan for that hour, which funds wages, on-costs and overheads. A service price cap, not a worker wage (Pricing Schedule 2026–27)

Work out your own rate with the SCHADS award tool or the pay rate calculator.

Indicative hourly rates based on the SCHADS Award (MA000100), from the Fair Work pay guide effective 1 July 2026 (Fair Work pay guides). Modern award rates are national and do not vary by state. Pay is set by each provider and can be higher under an enterprise agreement. General information only, not financial advice.
