Employers are encouraged to review their payroll software to ensure that their systems are up to date and are calculating the correct rates. The incorrect rates will lead to unintended underpayments of superannuation, which may attract penalties.
We also recommend that employers review your employee’s contracts to ensure that you are calculating the superannuation correctly on the employees renumeration package. The first quarterly superannuation guarantee subject to the new rate will be September 2021, due by the 28th October 2021.
As a reminder, the following superannuation guarantee (SG) rates are to be implemented in due course:
