This is a generational change which will present new challenges to employers, particularly small businesses. This webinar will equip you with the tools to understand the changes and have proactive conversations with your employer clients.

Who Event details (repeat this section if there are multiple sessions) The webinar will provide a refresher on the overall superannuation guarantee framework and consider what is changing and what won’t be changing. We will cover the new super guarantee process, how this impacts both employees and independent contractors and also the transitional rules for July 2026 when some employers will be juggling the last of the FY26 quarterly contributions and the new payday contributions.

Whilst change can be difficult, there are positive aspects of these new rules which include deductibility of late payments and also potentially lower penalties for employers who generally do the right thing but accidently miss an SG deadline and deal with the issue promptly.

Articulate the more frequent payday superannuation requirements to clients and help them prepare for 1 July 2026.
Understand the new income definitions for SG and SGC

Explain what is required should an SG deadline be missed
