Who covers Millennium Services Group workers — award or agreement?
Millennium Services Group provides commercial and institutional cleaning services, operating separate state-based cleaning businesses across Western Australia, New South Wales and Queensland among other states. Its workforce is made up mostly of cleaners working across client sites, with a smaller supervisory and management layer.
The Cleaning Services Award 2020 sets the floor for cleaning roles. Our corpus holds no current registered Millennium Services Group cleaning agreement — the one Millennium-named agreement in the public record belongs to an unrelated construction rigging company — so the award tables below are what should be on the payslip for Millennium cleaning staff.
The federal awards relevant to Millennium Services Group roles:
- Cleaning Services Award 2020 (MA000022)
- Security Services Industry Award 2020 (MA000016)
Workforce snapshot. In its 2024-25 report to the Workplace Gender Equality Agency, Millennium Services Group Limited declared 3,561 employees across 9 reporting entities — 6.5% casual and 45.4% women. Source: WGEA 2025 Public Data File, data.gov.au (CC-BY 3.0 AU).
Cleaning award floor — adults (1 July 2026)
The Cleaning Services Award 2020 (MA000022) adult minimums are:
| Classification | Permanent | Casual (incl. 25%) |
|---|---|---|
| Cleaning Services Employee Level 1 (general cleaning) | $27.08/hr | $33.85/hr |
| Cleaning Services Employee Level 2 (specialised cleaning, machinery, leading hand) | $27.97/hr | $34.96/hr |
| Cleaning Services Employee Level 3 (supervisor, carpet/pressure cleaning) | $29.45/hr | $36.81/hr |
Night, weekend and public holiday shifts attract the award's loadings on top; part-time cleaners must be paid the award minimum for every rostered hour, not a flat 'per site' rate.

Junior rates (under 21)
The Cleaning Services Award pays juniors a percentage of the Level 1 adult rate. From 1 July 2026 the junior minimums are:
- Under 16: $12.18/hr
- 16 years: $13.54/hr
- 17 years: $16.25/hr
- 18 years: $18.95/hr
- 19 years: $21.66/hr
- 20 years: $24.37/hr
Your rate must step up from the first full pay period after each birthday. Casual juniors add the 25% loading on top of these figures. An enterprise agreement's junior scale must leave you better off than this ladder overall.
Security award floor (1 July 2026)
The Security Services Industry Award 2020 (MA000016) adult minimums are:
| Classification | Permanent | Casual (incl. 25%) |
|---|---|---|
| Security Officer Level 1 (static guard, concierge) | $28.42/hr | $35.53/hr |
| Security Officer Level 2 (monitoring, crowd control, first aid) | $29.24/hr | $36.55/hr |
| Security Officer Level 3 (control room, senior officer) | $29.73/hr | $37.16/hr |
| Security Officer Level 4 (supervisor of level 1–3 officers) | $30.23/hr | $37.79/hr |
| Security Officer Level 5 (site manager) | $31.20/hr | $39.00/hr |
Night shift, weekend and overtime loadings are where a security roster's pay is made: the award's own worked examples put a Level 1 casual Saturday at 175% and Sunday at 225% of the base rate. Check a specific roster with the penalty rates calculator.

Does Millennium Services Group have an enterprise agreement?
As at 22 September 2026, our corpus of 14,141 federally registered enterprise agreements holds no current agreement for Millennium Services Group. That usually means one of three things: the employer pays on the award (or on individual contracts above it), the agreement covering you is registered under a different entity name (check the employer name on your payslip and search our agreements database), or — for state public-sector employers — pay is set by a state award or agreement outside the federal register. If you have a copy of an agreement that names Millennium Services Group, it beats the award figures above.
Common facility services pay issues at Millennium Services Group
The patterns worth checking on a Millennium Services Group payslip:
- Flat per-site rates that don't cover every hour actually worked, or that ignore night and weekend loadings.
- Level 1 for specialised work — machinery, carpet, pressure cleaning or leading a team is Level 2–3.
- Unpaid travel between sites and unpaid set-up.
- Minimum engagements ignored on short shifts.
What to do if your pay looks wrong
Match your payslip to your classification in the agreement (or the award tables above), and price any gap with our back-pay calculator. Raise it in writing with payroll or your manager first — most underpayments are fixed at that step. Unresolved, the Fair Work Ombudsman (13 13 94) recovers underpayments at no cost, up to six years back, and your union can run the claim for you. Not sure which instrument covers you? Ask our AI advisor with your role and location.
