The Federal Government is introducing Payday Super, which will change how and when employers pay their employees’ superannuation.
From 1 July 2026, employers will be required to pay super at the same time as salary and wages on each payday. Super contributions will need to be received by the employee’s super fund within 7 business days of payday.
In preparation, employers should review their payroll and super processes and ensure their systems are able to process super contributions each payday.
