⏰ Payday Super starts 1 July 2026 – is your business ready?

The way employers pay super is changing. From 1 July 2026, super contributions will need to be paid at the same time as employee wages and salaries replacing the current quarterly payment system.

While the change may seem straightforward, it could have a significant impact on your payroll processes, cash flow management and compliance obligations.

Now is the ideal time to:
✔ Review your payroll software and systems
✔ Assess the impact on your business cash flow
✔ Update internal payroll procedures
✔ Ensure you're prepared to meet the new reporting and payment requirements

Getting organised early can help avoid last-minute headaches, missed payments, and potential penalties.

Need help navigating the changes? Get in touch with our team and we'll help make the transition as smooth as possible!
