Your figures
Your Service
Continuous service with the one employer (or business, through sales and restructures). Approved unpaid leave usually does not break continuity but may not count towards it.
Estimates only, not legal advice. Long service leave is state law and the fine print (casual continuity tests, what counts as ordinary pay, misconduct exclusions) varies. Construction, cleaning, security and community services workers are often under portable schemes with different rules. Confirm with your state's authority before relying on a figure.

Frequently asked questions
How much long service leave do I get in Tasmania?
You get 8 and two thirds weeks after 10 years of continuous employment under the Long Service Leave Act 1976, then a further 4 and a third weeks for each additional 5 years.
Do I get long service leave if I resign in Tasmania?
Only in limited cases between 7 and 10 years. You are paid if you die, if your employer ends your employment for anything except serious and wilful misconduct, if you leave because of illness, if you resign for a domestic or other pressing necessity, or if you retire. Retirement counting as a qualifying reason is a Tasmanian feature worth knowing.
How is a long service leave payout worked out in Tasmania?
You get the share of 8 and two thirds weeks that your service bears to 10 years, paid at your ordinary pay. The calculator uses that formula.
