If you have employees or hire eligible contractors for your small business, it’s crucial to stay informed about the latest changes. Starting from 1st July 2023, the new Super Guarantee (SG) rate will be 11%. To ensure compliance, it is essential to update your payroll and accounting systems accordingly.
The increased rate of 11% applies to all SG payments made to both employees and eligible contractors. To avoid incurring the Super Guarantee Charge (SGC), it is vital that payments reach the employee or contractor’s super fund on or before the quarterly super due date of 28th July.
