Under the Labor Government's superannuation changes, the minimum contribution to your super will gradually increase from 9 per cent to 12 per cent between 2013 and 2019. There will also be a new tax break for low income earners of up to $500 a year.
For many years unions have advocated for these improvements to workers' super. Our success means that more than 8.4 million Australian workers will enjoy a more comfortable retirement.
