Payday Super for employers and employees
In the 2023-24 Federal Budget, the Government announced that from 1 July 2026, employers would be required to pay workers’ super at the same time they pay salary or wages.

Payday Super is not yet law
If the legislation passes, Payday Super is currently proposed to come into effect on 1 July 2026.

The Government released Payday Super draft legislation which proposes to implement design principles outlined in their September 2024 Payday super fact sheet (PDF)

What Payday Super will mean for employers
Many employers currently pay their workers’ super monthly or quarterly.

The good news is that paying super on payday means fewer liabilities building up over time, which may make managing cash flow easier. Plus, it lines up with payroll processes, reducing the administration of making separate super payments.
