Award classification FAQs

What is award classification?
Award classification is determining which Modern Award covers a role and, within that award, the correct classification level and pay point. The classification sets the minimum rate the employee must legally be paid, so getting it right is the foundation of correct pay.
How does the job classifier work?
You describe the role and CrossVault maps it to the applicable SCHADS Award classification level and pay point, returning the result with the clause references so you can see how the classification was reached rather than taking a black-box answer on trust.
Which awards does it cover?
It is purpose-built for the SCHADS Award (Social, Community, Home Care and Disability Services Industry Award) and the NDIS, disability and community-services roles that award covers.
Why does classification matter?
A role classified at the wrong level is underpaid or overpaid on every single shift, so a classification error compounds into systematic payroll risk and back-pay exposure across the whole period of employment, not just one pay run.
