3. Complete the fields as needed.

Enter the Minimum Threshold Amount for Employer Superannuation

Generally, the Superannuation Guarantee for Australian employees is paid after the employee has earned more than $450 in one month. You also have the option to enter a value between 1 - 449 to indicate the minimum threshold to calculate superannuation based on that amount instead of the standard 450 amount. For example, you can enter a value of 350 in compliance with the Hospitality Industry General Award (HIGA) and Restaurant Industry Award (RIA) which pays employer superannuation once an employee earns $350 a month.

To enter the minimum threshold amount for employer superannuation other than the standard $450 amount:

1. Go to People, open the employee profile, and click Payroll > Superannuation.
2. Click Add.
3. In the Minimum threshold amount for Employer Superannuation textbox of the Superannuation Rules section, enter the minimum value.
4. Click Save.
