Workers in the public sector in Australia earn about 5.1% more in hourly wages than those in the private sector. This wage premium is slightly higher for females than males. The positive wage effects of public sector employment are greater for lower-wage workers compared to others. The public sector wage premiums also vary based on qualifications, time period, occupation, and location within Australia.
