The world of superannuation is undergoing significant changes, and it’s crucial for locum pharmacists to stay informed about these updates that directly impact their retirement savings. Let’s dive into the key changes in superannuation requirements and understand their implications for locum pharmacists’ financial future.
Starting from 1 July 2023, the Super Guarantee will experience incremental increases, ultimately reaching 12% in 2025. This increase signifies a significant boost to the mandatory super contributions made by employers on behalf of their employees. It’s a positive step towards securing a more financially stable retirement for locum pharmacists and other workers across various industries.
In addition to the Super Guarantee increase, legislative changes have been enacted to remove the minimum $450 per month wages requirement for super guarantee eligibility, and is already in effect. This amendment is a game-changer, as it ensures that all eligible employees, regardless of their income level, are entitled to receive superannuation contributions from their employers.

By increasing the Super Guarantee and removing the income threshold, locum pharmacists can expect a higher accumulation of superannuation funds over time, leading to a more comfortable retirement.
