More information about salary sacrifice

  • What is salary sacrifice?

    This is when you add an additional portion of your income into your superannuation fund before tax. Read more about salary sacrifice options in Building Your Super.

  • How much are you allowed to salary sacrifice?

    There’s a limit of $27,500 a year for all before-tax contributions. This includes salary sacrifice, Superannuation Guarantee and other employer contributions. Amounts that exceed these limits will be taxed at the highest rate of 49%.

  • What's the difference between a concessional and non-concessional contribution?

    Generally, a concessional contribution is a contribution made by or for you to your super before tax. They include contributions such as:

    • your employers compulsory contributions (Super Guarantee)
    • additional employer contributions, and
    • any salary sacrificed contributions that you arrange for your employer to redirect from your before-tax salary.

    A non-concessional contribution is a special term associated with after-tax super contributions. After-tax contributions are super contributions for which an individual or employer hasn't claimed a tax deduction. Concessional is a term used to describe favourable tax treatment.
