Super Guarantee Contribution
Currently set at 9% (and not increased during 11 years of Howard government nor first two years of Rudd Government), now set to increase 10- 12 per cent by 2019/20
Win/lose?
About Seniors considers this reinstatement of increasing SGC to be a win – over time more working Australians will have a much more substantial retirement nest egg. But does it need to take so long and should businesses be footing the bill?
What do you think?
Because the Government has given a good term of forwarning,
the total cost of the SGC will just be added to the cost of goods
& services, thereby making sure that the employee ultimately
pays for his/her own retirement.
