SuperStream is a government initiative to simplify your superannuation obligations by making it mandatory to provide contribution data and make super payments electronically.

If your business has 20 or more employees, you need to start complying with the government's new SuperStream requirements from June 30 2015. If you have fewer than 20 employees, you have until June 30 2016.

For all the details on SuperStream, including when your business needs to be compliant, and exactly what those requirements are, see the Employer FAQs and video on the ATO website.
