Casual team leader?

Hello 👋, just an inquiry as I'm looking to get a new job and was thinking a casual position. Been a team leader for 5 years and are just returning from mat. leave. I want to make sure I get the right pay and understanding the classifications correctly.
Given that level 4.1 and above is a team leader position, how is there a casual rate for this? There would not be a casual team leader position so im alittle confused about this. Or would it be if someone was filling the role that day cause they are sick?
Cheers
Mel

Hi Mel,

As a casual, you would typically be an assistant within a room so you would be on Level 3.4 (since you are a Diploma Qualified). As a casual role, you would typically be filling in someone who is sick or on leave.

As for wages, add 25% to the full-time pay rate and you will get your casual rate.
