Creating Wealth in Super for Business Owners and Their Employees

Superannuation is one of the most powerful tools for building long-term wealth, yet many business owners and employees fail to take full advantage of it. 

This practical workshop is designed to help both employers and their teams better understand how to use super effectively, comply with obligations, and plan for a secure financial future.

What we’ll cover:

· Superannuation Basics – Understand your obligations as an employer, current thresholds, and the latest Superannuation Guarantee (SG) rate.

· Salary Sacrifice – Explore how salary sacrifice works, its advantages and potential pitfalls for both employers and employees.

· Tax Deductibility of Contributions – Learn the difference between employer and personal contributions, and how to maximise tax efficiency.

· Contribution Caps – Get up to date with concessional and non-concessional contribution limits and how to stay within them.

· Cash Flow Management – Plan ahead for quarterly super payments without impacting your business operations.

· Single Touch Payroll (STP) – Ensure your reporting is accurate, compliant, and integrated with super contributions.

· Super Guarantee Charge (SGC) – Understand penalties for late or missed payments, and how to avoid them.

· Self-Managed Super Funds (SMSFs) – When are they suitable for small business owners and what to watch out for.

· Using Super as a Business Owner – Discover strategies for paying yourself while building meaningful retirement savings.

· Estate Planning – Keep wealth in the family and minimise tax impacts through smart planning.

· Recent and Upcoming Law Changes – Stay informed about important legislative updates, including Division 296 and what it means for high-balance super funds.

Whether you’re a sole trader, small business owner, or an employer looking to better support your team, this session will provide you with the clarity and confidence to make super work for you.
