Payday Super – starting 1 July 2026
From 1 July 2026, employers will be required to pay Superannuation Guarantee (SG) contributions at the same time as salary and wages are paid.
This change affects when super is paid — not how it is calculated.
With less than six months to go, now is the time for businesses to start preparing. Getting ready early will help minimise disruption and ensure you remain compliant when the changes take effect.
These rules will apply to all employers, regardless of whether payroll is run weekly, fortnightly, monthly or irregularly. In most cases, super contributions will need to be received by an employee’s nominated fund within seven business days of each payday.
Over the coming months, we’ll be sharing practical, actionable steps with our business client’s to help manage the transition smoothly ahead of 1 July 2026.
In the meantime, if you have any question, please contact us in 9377 4400.
