Super Choice is a new legislation, effective 1 July 2005, designed to provide your employees with:
Greater choice – they can choose where their super guarantee contributions are paid
Greater flexibility – they can still keep their super together in one fund, even if they change jobs
What does it mean for employees?
As an employer, it is up to you to choose a default fund for employee contributions, where employees have not selected a fund. When selecting a default fund, you should consider whether the fund has:
A good range of investment options
Reasonable fees
The minimum insurance coverage as per government's criteria
Comprehensive member education services
Efficient administrative options for you and your employees
Member benefits such as financial planning services
