Every employer in Mackay needs to read this. 📢

From 1 July 2026, super must be paid on payday. Not quarterly. Not monthly. Every single pay run.

This is the biggest change to employer super obligations in decades and if your payroll software isn’t updated before 1 July, your very first payroll run after that date will put you in breach of the SG rules.

What to do right now:
✅ Contact your payroll software provider and confirm payday super readiness
✅ Review your cash flow — super leaving every pay run changes your position significantly vs quarterly
✅ Note: the late payment offset ends completely on 1 July. There’s no grace period.

We’re helping every business client prepare before the deadline. Give us a call at Whitson Dawson a call today on (07) 4957 2985.
