Office Gossip…
Mel our Client Services Extraordinaire has recently returned from a 4 week holiday in Italy with her husband and parents.
Mel’s father is originally from Italy so with the perfect tour guide on board they drove themselves around visiting family and seeing famous land marks including the Colosseum, Vatican, Mt Etna and of course the very romantic city of Venice.
Fortunately Mel arrived back to us in one piece bringing back beautiful biscuits and a burning desire to return. Although not too soon…we barely survived without her!

12% Superannuation Guarantee - 1 July 2025

By Caroline Gillies • June 22, 2025
From 1 July 2025, the Superannuation Guarantee (SG) rate in Australia will increase to 12%. This means employers will be legally required to contribute at least 12% of an eligible employee's ordinary time earnings to their superannuation fund. This increase is the final step in a legislated rise from 9.5% in 2021 to 12% by 2025, aimed at boosting retirement savings for Australian workers. If you use Xero for payroll, the SG rate should automatically update in the system. However, we recommend you double-check your payroll settings to ensure everything is correct. If you’re unsure or need assistance, please contact your bookkeeper or get in touch with us at: Clear Vision Accountancy Group (07) 4688 2500 We’re here to help you stay compliant and avoid any costly errors.
