Superannuation
Superannuation can be best described as a compulsory pension contribution. The contributions are compulsory and only redeemable upon retirement. The current contribution stands at 9% of salary and your employer will automatically pay this on your behalf to a superannuation fund(only after you have earned a minimum of $450 in a calendar month).
