Labour Hire

wilf58

My client has contractors who are labour only and need to be paid superannuation. If I set them up as an "Employee" but select Labour Hire as Employment Basis then that excludes them from the wages calculation at the end of the year. However I see the superannuation component is still reported under STP and hence we need the TFN from all these contractors as well. Is there a way to exclude them from STP as it isn't mandatory to report them? Thanks

Hi @wilf58

Pay Superannuation is done based on the superannuation category and employee superannuation details. The Employment Basis doesn't factor in the equation on whether or not the superannuation amounts will appear in the Pay Superannuation window.

Thanks for the prompt reply Steven. If I make the Employment Basis OTHER and hence it excludes the information from STP, will it still pick up the superannuation component when I do my quarterly payment for all the regular employees or do I have to do something extra?

Hi @wilf58

When the employment basis of an employee's card is set to be Other (not Individual or Labour hire) this will prevent that card from being reporting on by payroll reporting.

If you do need to report on that employee you would be looking at setting that Employment Basis to Individual or Labour Hire - Employees' card>>Payroll Details>>Wages>>Employment Basis.
