Life on easy street Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 There is a mandatory super (pension ) contribution of 9% of you wages. This will be taken from you salary every month and deposited in your super fund every 3 months. You need to watch this some of the less honest companies take it from your wages But not deposit in your super fund! This happened to my brother in law things were only sorted when his union helped him out ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BullcreekBob Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 G'day The mandatory 9% is not taken from your wages. It is paid in addition to your wages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
