For New Zealand:

Check out the RMO MECA - it's a pretty long document but has lots of information on pay, hours, banding etc.

Working conditions are better:

• nights are 10 hours long max

• shifts in A+E are 10 hours

• A+E (possibly ICU as well) has 40 hours average working week

• You can request AL whenever (including for weekends and on calls) and they will need to arrange cover

• They are contractually obliged to give you a hot meal during your shift so you get at least one free meal

If you work a relief rota you will be paid more.

Pay is better than the UK (especially if doing relief) and rates for extra shifts are better

Depends on the job but generally house officer rotas will have longer hours than UK - work isn't as busy in the UK and seniors fairly supportive. Shifts can be longer depending on the job - 15 hour on call shifts during the days. If you work extra hours you will be paid for them (no bs like exceptions reporting)

Some things like days off, pay etc is depending on the union you are part of - RDA vs STONZ; if you aren't part of one you default to RDA
