Superannuation

All employer contributions made in respect of an employee are liable. These include contributions paid or payable:

  • to a superannuation fund

  • including the superannuation guarantee charge

  • to any provident or retirement fund or scheme

  • as salary sacrifice arrangements

  • as lump sums paid on behalf of a class of employees

  • as any other form of superannuation

  • to contractors under a relevant contract.

Any contributions made by an employee into a fund administered by the employer out of their own PAYG post tax pay are not liable as they are not contributions made by the employer.
