Description
Superannuation guarantee (SG) rates will increase from 1 July 2021. While this is good news for our retirement nest eggs, some employees may feel the impact with a deduction to their take-home pay. This article explains the SG rate changes, salary differences, and options available to those who are affected by a deduction to their wage.
Introduction
The super guarantee (SG) is the minimum percentage of ordinary earnings that employers must contribute to superannuation for their eligible employees.
After years being stuck at 9.5% the SG rate is on the move again. It increased from 9.5% to 10% on 1 July 2021, and will increase by a further 0.5% each year until it reaches 12% from July 2025.
