salary sacrificing

How salary sacrificing

can pay off

Example of super savings on retirement:

Complete the attached ‘Request for payroll deduction’ form

and hand it directly to your employer’s payroll department. Your employer can also pay personal contributions directly into your LUCRF Super account from your after-tax pay. If you would like to do this, complete Step 3 of the attached form.

Your employer will notify LUCRF Super of the contribution type and amount when making your superannuation payments.

Important things to know about salary sacrifice

Salary sacrifice arrangements are not available to everyone as not all employers will offer the option. If you are paid under an Award, you may not be able to sacrifice your salary to a level below what is stipulated in your Award.

Tax treatment of salary sacrifice (before-tax) contributions is different to that of personal super contributions (after-tax), therefore it may not suit your circumstances.

When making a decision, ask your employer which gross pay amount they will use to calculate your SG contributions – will it be before or after your salary sacrifice has been deducted?

Example: If you gross $50,000 p.a. and salary sacrifice $5,000 p.a., your employer may pay your SG contribution on $45,000 instead of the $50,000 you are earning. Ask your employer for clarification.

If you are aged between 65 and 75 years, you

will need to meet the work test conditions (which requires that you work a minimum of 40 hours in a continuous 30-day period during the financial year) to make either personal or salary sacrifice

contributions to your super. If you are aged 75 or over, you are not eligible to contribute.

Call 1300 130 780 and talk to a qualified LUCRF Super representative for personalised financial advice.

Issued September 2015 by L.U.C.R.F Pty Ltd ABN 18 005 502 090 AFSL 258481 as Trustee for Labour Union Co-operative Retirement Fund ABN 26 382 680 883 (LUCRF Super).

What is salary sacrifice?

Salary sacrifice is an arrangement with your

employer to pay part of your gross (before-tax) pay

directly into your super account.

This is known as a concessional contribution and it can help grow your super while reducing your personal income tax.

Personal contributions – what’s the difference?

Personal (non-concessional) contributions are paid into your super from your after-tax pay. If you earn less than $50,454 p.a.* you may be eligible for the government co-contribution.

To learn more, read our Money for Nothing brochure available fromlucrf.com.au or call us on 1300 130 780.

A little each pay does add up

By salary sacrificing a little amount each pay, you can boost your super considerably without the need to budget for a large annual ‘one-off’ contribution.

Tax savings

The super contribution tax rate is generally 15% on salary sacrifice payments and is less than most people’s individual income tax rate (between 34.5% and 47%, including Medicare Levy).

For further details regarding contribution tax levels please visit www.ato.gov.au/super or call 13 10 20.

How much can you salary sacrifice?

The total concessional contribution limit is currently $30,000p.a. for people aged under 50 and $35,000 p.a. for people aged 50 and over. Any excess concessional contributions will be included in an individual’s assessable income and include a penalty charge due to the Australian Tax Office (ATO) not receiving the tax as early as they would have if it had been received as income tax. Please note: your concessional contributions limit includes your employer Superannuation Guarantee (SG) and salary sacrifice contributions.

Salary sacrificing can make a big difference to your super balance when it is time to retire.

Less tax

The money you salary sacrifice into your super comes directly from your gross (before-tax) pay. Generally this money is taxed at the super contribution tax rate of 15% upon entry into your fund instead of your normal income tax rate (could be up to 47%, including Medicare Levy).
