When can I open a super account?

Your employer is required to contribute to your super if you are earning $450 or more (before tax) per month.

If you’re under 18 years old and working less than 30 hours a week, your employer is not required to make super contributions.

You’re eligible for super if you work casually, part-time or full-time, and even if you are a temporary resident. You may also be eligible if you are a contractor who is paid primarily for labour, even if you have an Australian Business Number (ABN).
