If you’re running a business in Australia, you’ve probably heard of BAS and IAS, but what do they actually mean?

𝗕𝗔𝗦 (𝗕𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁) is a report submitted to the ATO to declare and pay your business taxes, including:
-GST (Goods and Services Tax)
-PAYG withholding (tax withheld from employees)
-Other business tax obligations

BAS is usually lodged monthly or quarterly, depending on your business size and turnover.

𝗜𝗔𝗦 (𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁) is similar to BAS, but it generally applies when you are reporting PAYG withholding only and not GST. You may need to lodge an IAS if your PAYG withholding reaches a certain threshold, which can change how often you report.

PAYG withholding thresholds determine how often you report, based on the amount of tax you withhold from employees:
-Small withholder ($25,000 or less): Lodge and pay quarterly
-Medium withholder ($25,001 to $1 million): Lodge and pay monthly
-Large withholder (more than $1 million): Pay electronically within 6–8 days of each withholding event

As your business grows, you may move from quarterly to monthly reporting.

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗜𝘁 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗕𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀?
✔️ Stay compliant – Avoid penalties and ATO issues
✔️ Manage cash flow – Know exactly what you owe and when
✔️ Keep your business organised – Track income, expenses, and taxes properly
✔️ Reduce stress – No last-minute scrambling at deadlines

𝗠𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗿 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗕𝗔𝗦/𝗜𝗔𝗦 𝗹𝗼𝗱𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝘁𝗼:
-Fines and penalties
-Extra admin work
-Unnecessary stress

Keeping your BAS/IAS up to date helps your business run smoothly and gives you more time to focus on growth.

The Fair Work Commission has announced upcoming changes to Junior wage rates under the Retail, Fast Food, and Pharmacy Awards.

What’s changing?
✅ Employees under the age of 21 covered by these awards are paid a percentage of the adult pay rate for their classification.
✅ Employees aged 18 to 20 will be entitled to the adult pay rate for their classification if they’ve been employed by their employer for more than 6 months.
✅ Junior rates will remain unchanged for employees under 18

The Commission has indicated that these changes will be introduced gradually and changes may begin from 1 December 2026. Further details are still being confirmed as implementation arrangements continue [fairwork.gov.au]

At SYM Business Services, we’re keeping a close eye on these updates so we can help our clients prepare, review payroll settings, and stay compliant as changes are confirmed.

If you’re in retail, fast food, or pharmacy and employ junior staff, now is a good time to review your current pay structures and plan ahead. Because these changes may affect your wage costs, payroll calculations, and compliance obligations.

📩 Reach out to us if you’d like help understanding how these changes may affect your business
