Payday Super is now law. Effective from 1 July 2026, Payday Super means big changes for employers and super funds, including that employers will have to align super contributions for their employees with ‘pay day’. This webinar will cover the key changes under the new Payday Super that employers and their advisers should be aware of, including:
Deadlines for making super payments
How to calculate contribution amounts
When payments will be deductible
What to do if payments are late
What charges and penalties apply for late payments
We will also explore the broader employment law implications of these reforms. Payday Super represents a shift from periodic compliance to real-time entitlement, bringing superannuation squarely into the Fair Work compliance framework. We will discuss the interaction with modern awards and ordinary time earnings, how this increases underpayment risk, and what employers should be doing now to review payroll practices, contracts, and compliance systems ahead of commencement.
