Payday Super is Coming....July 2026

Payday Super is a change to Australia’s superannuation system that requires employers to pay super contributions at the same time as employees receive their wages, rather than quarterly. The goal is to ensure workers receive their super faster, reduce unpaid super, and improve long-term retirement outcomes. Under the reform, contributions would be processed through payroll each pay cycle and reported more frequently to the Australian Taxation Office. By aligning super payments with regular paydays, the system aims to increase transparency, strengthen compliance, and help employees grow their retirement savings more consistently over time.
