Super, or superannuation, is important because the more you save, the more money you will have in retirement. Super is a long-term investment which grows over time.
For most people, super begins when you start work and your employer starts paying a percentage of your salary or wages into a super fund account for you.
Your super fund invests and manages this money for you until you retire.
If you’re 18 or older and you earn $450 or more (before tax) in a calendar month, your employer must make superannuation contributions on your behalf.
If you’re under 18 and you earn $450 or more (before tax) in a calendar month and you work more than 30 hours in a week, your employer must also make superannuation contributions on your behalf.
