The Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation (ANMF) and its members are celebrating the third and final pay rise for Australia's aged care workforce, as a result of the Fair Work Commission's (FWC) landmark Aged Care Work Value Case.
On 1 October 2025, the Nurses Award, Aged Care Award and the award that covers workers delivering aged care in the home, (SCHADS Award), were varied to increase the minimum wages for many aged care workers. Employers must pay award wages – a failure to pay the minimum can expose employers to fines and penalties. This is the direct result of the landmark Work Value case run by the ANMF and other unions.
