Find A SuperStream Solution For Your Business
The deadline for being SuperStream compliant has now passed, however if you still haven’t made the switch, there are options available.
The easiest option for those with less than 20 employees is to use the Small Business Superannuation Clearing House. The benefits of the clearing house are that you make one payment for all staff superannuation, the clearing house will then forward the payments to the individual super funds, and it is SuperStream Compliant so no further services are required.
The ATO is holding a webinar on 10 November so you can learn more about SuperStream – details can be found on their website.
If you aren’t sure about whether you are compliant, you can use this decision tool or the step-by-step guide to make sure you are meeting your obligations.
If you have any questions or doubts over SuperStream, please contact us at Value Beyond to discuss.
Final Call For Fairer Small Business Contracts
In two weeks time unfair contract terms laws will be extended to small business standard form contracts.
If you are a small business and enter into contracts where you have little or no ability to negotiate the terms, this law will protect you from unfair terms after 12 November.
If you are about to enter into or sign a new contract, consider whether you can wait until after this date to gain this protection.
If you supply standard form contracts to small businesses, you are running out of time to amend or remove and potentially unfair contract terms before the new laws come into force.
The ACCC will be able to take enforcement action against business who offer small business standard form contracts that contain unfair contract terms.
For more information about the new law, check out the ACCC website.
