Payday Super is a legislative change that requires employers to pay Superannuation Guarantee (SG) contributions at the same time they pay employees’ salary or wages.
The changes will commence on 1 July 2026.
Employers will need to:
Calculate super contributions each pay run
Pay super at the same time wages are paid
Move away from quarterly super payment cycles
This represents a cash-flow and process change, particularly for employers who currently pay super quarterly.
