This publication is a summary of the Motor Vehicle (Service Station, Sales Establishments, Rust Prevention and Paint Protection) Industry Award. 

On 26 June 2020 the Western Australian Industrial Relations Commission (WAIRC) issued the 2020 State Wage Case decision. The WAIRC decision grants a 1.75% per week increase in WA award rates of pay from the first pay period on or after 1 January 2021.

The 2020 WA award summary on this page reflects the rates of pay that apply from 1 July 2020 through to 31 December 2020.

New WA award summaries reflecting the rates that take effect from 1 January 2021 will be issued later in 2020. Subscribe to Wageline News to be notified when the new 1 January 2021 pay rates are available on the Wageline website.
