Topic:  Navigating Payday Super in practice

Tuesday 10 March 2026 | 12:30-2:00pm AEDT

Payday superannuation is set to transform how super is paid and will impact every payroll and finance team across Australia. Join us for an ATO‑led update and live Q&A explaining what the reform means, why it’s being introduced, and how it will impact employers, employees and tax advisors. Following an update from the ATO, an expert panel will discuss the likely day‑to‑day challenges that employers will face. The panel will address operational questions around payroll timing, cashflow impacts, software readiness, and compliance expectations. Using examples and real-world scenarios, the session will translate policy into clear, actionable steps employers and practitioners can take to prepare for this major reform.

This session will cover:

  • ATO led update with Q & A
  • Panel discussion covering
    • Managing super contributions within weekly, fortnightly, and irregular pay cycles
    • Cashflow planning and the transition away from quarterly payments
    • Payroll system capability, clearing house processes, and integration considerations
    • Handling corrections, backpay, off‑cycle runs, and complex employment arrangements
    • Understanding ATO expectations and maintaining compliance under the new regime
