On 2 May 2023 the Australian Government announced that from 1 July 2026, employers will be required to pay their employees’ superannuation guarantee (SG) at the same time as their salary and wages.
The Attaché Payroll product team are currently working on Attaché Payroll product changes to support this change in legislation.
We will inform all of our customers of our software changes in the near future.
