How accurate is the forecast?

As accurate as your inputs — it applies typical award penalty tiers and the 12% super guarantee to your shift mix. For exact award rates, check your award level; every preset is editable.

Why forecast before publishing?

Because the weekend mix drives cost: two Sunday shifts can cost as much as three weekday ones. Seeing it before you publish is how rosters stay on budget.

Can Tommy do this automatically?

Yes — Tommy costs your roster as you build it, with your actual rates, and warns when a draft blows the budget.

Estimates for planning, not legal or payroll advice. Award, contract and statutory rules vary — always confirm with your award, agreement or adviser.
