Please be aware

⚠️ SUPERANNUATION SCAM ⚠️ We’ve seen an increase in superannuation phone and email scams that encourage you to invest in a ‘high performing’ self-managed super fund (SMSF).

Don’t provide any personal or financial information because these scammers can use this to steal your identity and take off with your super savings.

🛑 Beware of cold calls from people offering financial advice and always check who you are dealing with before providing any details.

If you or someone you know receives an SMS, email or letter from us about an SMSF that you didn’t establish contact us immediately on 13 10 20.

Warn your family and friends to stay alert and visit our scam alerts page to learn more: www.ato.gov.au/General/Online-services/Identity-security-and-scams/Scam-alerts/

Be on the lookout for a new text message (SMS) scam claiming you have a tax refund from the ATO. Don’t click any links and don’t give out your bank details, even if it looks convincing.

🚨 SCAM ALERT 🚨 Watch out for this dodgy ‘Tax Refund Notification’ email asking you to verify your billing information.

• Forward the email to us at [email protected]
• Delete it and don’t respond to the sender.

Warn your family and friends to beware of this scam and always be cautious when opening attachments or clicking links in emails. Check out our scam alerts page for more info: ato.gov.au/ScamAlerts

You can be asked to give evidence to show why you’ve been away from work – even if you were only off sick for 1 day.

There are no strict rules on what counts as evidence, but it needs to be enough to ‘convince a reasonable person’ that you were sick. Medical certificates and statutory declarations are examples of acceptable types of evidence.

Base rates of pay to increase by 3.3%.

The Fair Work Commission has announced a 3.3% increase to award wages and the national minimum wage.

The increase takes effect from the first full pay period that starts on or after 1 July 2017. The new national minimum wage will be $694.90 (up from $672.70) per week or $18.29 per hour (up from $17.70).

It usually takes the Commission 2-3 weeks to update the pay rates in each award.

Once they make these changes, we’ll update our pay tools with the new rates. Sign up to our email updates and we’ll notify you when the new rates are available in our pay tools.
