Minimum monthly earnings threshold
This monthly threshold is the lower limit of employee salary or wages earnings that require employer superannuation contributions. If an employee earns less than this amount (before tax) in a month, then their employer does not have to provide superannuation contributions. However, employers can make superannuation contributions on earnings below this minimum based on an award or agreement.
