2:1 Roster Pay Calculator

    Calculate your take-home pay on a 2 weeks on, 1 week off FIFO roster

    Why Use This Calculator?

    The 2:1 roster is one of the most common FIFO swing patterns in Australian mining. With two weeks on-site followed by one week off, understanding your actual earnings — including penalty rates, night loadings, and allowances — is essential for financial planning. Our calculator gives you a detailed breakdown so you know exactly what to expect each swing.

    Whether you're working FIFO, rotating shifts, or any other pattern, our calculator helps you understand exactly what you'll earn. Factor in base rates, penalty loadings, overtime, and allowances to get an accurate picture of your pay.
