What is the Superannuation Guarantee (SG)?


In the world of Superannuation, there are many common terms that are used, many of which most people have no idea what they mean. In this article, we will be discussing the ‘Superannuation Guarantee (SG)’ which will cover some things you should know.

In Simple Terms:

The Superannuation Guarantee (SG) is a compulsory contribution that your employer is required to pay into your Superannuation Fund, on your behalf. They are required to make this contribution by law which is an extremely beneficial feature of retirement saving with Superannuation Funds.

As it stands, the rate of Superannuation Guarantee contributions is 10% of your annual salary which is usually split into quarterly payments. The contributions that you receive are part of your remuneration package and they are normally paid on top of your salary.

In order to be eligible for SG payments, you must be at least 18 years of age and earn a minimum of $450 per month (before tax).

How are Superannuation Guarantee Payments Taxed?

These contributions are classed as ‘Concessional’ contributions meaning that they are ‘before tax’ contributions. Upon entry into your Superannuation fund, they will be taxed at 15% if you earn below $250,000. If you earn more than this, tax at 30% will be applied. For more information on the tax treatment of retail super funds, check out our article Retail Super Funds – The 3 Stages of Tax.
