Where can I find the actual salary of Kyle and Jackie O?

Their salary is not published by the Fair Work Ombudsman, Fair Work Commission, or the Australian Taxation Office. It is a privately negotiated figure between the hosts and their employer, likely under a commercial contract or enterprise agreement. No public register lists individual salaries for radio personalities.

What minimum wage applies to a radio presenter like Kyle or Jackie?

If they were covered by a modern award, the relevant award would likely be the Broadcasting and Recorded Entertainment Award 2020. That award sets minimum rates for classifications such as 'Presenter – Radio'. However, high-profile hosts are usually employed under an enterprise agreement or individual contract that pays well above the award. The award minimum for a radio presenter (as of 1 July 2026) would be at least the national minimum of $26.44 per hour, but actual rates are much higher.

Does the super guarantee apply to salaries like Kyle and Jackie O's?

Yes. From 1 July 2026, employers must pay superannuation guarantee contributions of 12% on top of ordinary time earnings, including for high-income employees. There is no cap on the super guarantee amount. So if Kyle and Jackie O earn a high salary, their employer must contribute 12% super on that salary, subject to the concessional contributions cap for tax purposes.

Kyle and Jackie O salary: How it compares to Australia's minimum wage floor

The exact salary of Kyle and Jackie O is not publicly available from official sources, but the national minimum wage is $26.44 per hour from 1 July 2026.

Searching for Kyle and Jackie O salary? Here's what the law says

If you've been looking up "kyle and jackie o salary", you're probably curious how much the popular radio duo earn. While their exact pay is a private commercial matter, we can explain the legal minimum wage that applies to all Australian employees and how it compares to the earnings of high-profile personalities.

The legal minimum wage floor

The Fair Work Commission sets the national minimum wage each year. From 1 July 2026, the national minimum wage is $26.44 per hour or $1,004.90 per week for a 38-hour week. This is the minimum pay for adult employees not covered by an award or registered agreement.

Most employees, however, are covered by a modern award. Awards set minimum pay rates for specific industries and occupations. From 1 July 2026, award minimum wages increased by 4.75%, but the lowest ongoing classification in any award cannot be less than the national minimum wage. Introductory rates (for the first six months) cannot be less than $25.74 per hour or $978.10 per week.

For a radio presenter, the relevant award is the Broadcasting and Recorded Entertainment Award 2020. That award has classifications like "Presenter – Radio" with minimum rates that are higher than the national minimum. But for high-profile hosts like Kyle and Jackie O, their actual salary is almost certainly set by an enterprise agreement or individual contract, not the award.

How their salary compares to averages

The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) reports that in May 2026, full-time adult ordinary-time earnings averaged $2,083.70 per week. All employees (including part-time and casual) averaged $1,579.20 per week. These are survey averages, not legal minimums. Kyle and Jackie O's salary is likely well above these averages, but no public figure is available from official sources.

Superannuation is on top

When discussing any salary, remember that superannuation is an additional payment from the employer. From 1 July 2026, the super guarantee is 12% of ordinary time earnings. So if a salary is quoted as $X, the employer also pays 12% super on top. This applies to all employees, including high earners.

Different rates for different workers

Not every worker must receive $26.44 per hour. The national minimum wage has special rates for:

Junior employees (under 21): percentages of the adult rate, from 36.8% at age under 16 to 97.7% at age 20.
Apprentices and trainees: rates based on the Miscellaneous Award.
Employees with disability: supported wage rates.
Casual employees: a 25% loading on top of the minimum hourly rate (so $33.05 per hour for adults).

A modern award or enterprise agreement can require a higher rate than the national minimum. Always check which instrument covers the job.

Where to find the right minimum wage

To determine the correct minimum wage for a specific job, use the Fair Work Ombudsman's Pay and Conditions Tool. The Fair Work Commission sets the rates; the Ombudsman explains and enforces them.
