Superannuation

Definition.

Superannuation in Australia are the arrangements in place to enable people in Australia to accumulate funds to provide them with income in retirement.

How is it work?

Generally, if you pay an employee $450 or more before tax in a calendar month, you have to pay super on top of their wages.

The minimum you must pay is called the super guarantee (SG):

The SG is currently 9.5% of an employee’s ordinary time earnings.

Policy statement

The Department is strongly committed to providing its employees with a workplace free from all forms of discrimination and harassment.

Workplace discrimination and harassment have serious implications for both productivity and morale. The negative consequences for employees and the Department include:

For Employees:

Sustained harassment or discrimination can have a devastating effect on the lives of victims. Individuals can suffer fear, anxiety and stress which can cause or exacerbate physical illness, reduce their work performance, increase absenteeism and even cause them to resign from work.

For the Department:

If unchecked, harassment can also damage the workplace by creating tension and conflict which can lead to poor staff morale, divided teams, absenteeism, reduced productivity and higher staff turnover.
