The ATO has a ‘Paying Super is an important part of being an employer’ brochure, which is a brief six steps to ensure everything is covered.
There is also a ‘Super guarantee client health check’ – a checklist which can be used along with the brochure, as well as free ‘Super obligations for employers’ webinars held by the ATO throughout December.
