Soon, employers will be expected to pay superannuation to their employees at the same time as wages. This change, known as Payday Super, becomes mandatory from 1 July 2026 and represents a once-in-a-generation reform to the superannuation system. The reform has major implications for practice owners and employers, particularly those running weekly or fortnightly payrolls, as late payments attract SG charges, interest, and loss of tax deductibility. The Bongiorno Group’s Ricky Caldow and Chantelle Turner discuss the changes and what you should be aware of between now at July.
