How super works About super Superannuation (super) is a means of saving for your retirement which is, in part, compulsory; and is a long term investment. To encourage Australians to save for their retirement the Commonwealth government makes it compulsory for all employers to provide a minimum level of superannuation support to employees. This requires employers to pay Superannuation Guarantee contributions for and on behalf of their employees. The Commonwealth Government provides tax savings and benefits to superannuation which generally makes super one of the best long term investments for you to save for and fund your future retirement lifestyle. If you are a Tasmanian public sector employee and not a member of any of s closed defined benefit schemes your employer is required to pay compulsory Superannuation Guarantee contributions into a super account. Most people have the right to choose into which fund their employer should pay the Superannuation Guarantee contribution. Contributing to your super If you are a Tasmanian public sector employee, your employer will automatically contribute Superannuation Guarantee contributions (currently 9% of salary) and an additional personal contribution at the rate of 5% of salary from your after tax income unless you specify otherwise. There are different types of contributions that can be made to super including employer Superannuation Guarantee contributions, voluntary employer salary sacrifice contributions, voluntary personal after tax contributions, spouse contributions and Commonwealth Government Super Co-contributions. The tax treatment of contributions varies according to the type of contribution. There are limits on the contributions that can be made which are known as contribution caps. If you exceed the contribution caps additional tax may be payable. See How super is taxed on page 5. Members may at any time contribute additional personal contributions or spouse contributions using BPAY or cheque. Registered to BPAY Pty Ltd ABN 69 079 137 518 All contributions, superannuation rollover benefits and benefit transfers from other superannuation funds or schemes that are paid to the Tasmanian Accumulation Scheme by you or on your behalf will be credited to your super account which is called the Investment Account. Your Investment Account is invested in accordance with your investment choice (refer to page 3 of this booklet) and investment returns (positive or negative) are credited or debited to your account on a weekly basis. Your Investment Account is reduced by administration fees and other costs (See Fees and costs on page 4), insurance premiums (See Insurance in your super on page 6) and taxes (See How your super taxed on page 5). Your Investment Account is also reduced by any capital withdrawals that you make. Withdrawing from your super There are limitations that apply to withdrawals from super because your super benefits are intended to provide for your retirement. Generally, your super is preserved which means you cannot access it until you have turned 65, or retired after reaching what is known as your preservation age (currently between 55 and 60, depending on your date of birth). There are other limited circumstances where you may be able to meet a condition of release under superannuation law and access your super before your preservation age.

Fees and Costs Consumer advisory warning DID YOU KNOW? Small differences in both investment performance and fees and costs can have a substantial impact on your long term returns.
