Australia Electrical, Electronic and Communications Contracting Award 2020 (MA000025) 19.2: 19.1 and 19.2 Make superannuation contributions that avoid the superannuation guarantee charge

Superannuation rights and obligations come from the NES and superannuation legislation, and clause 19 adds to them. The employer must contribute to a superannuation fund for each employee enough to avoid being liable for the superannuation guarantee charge for that employee. The award's note records that under that legislation employees can usually choose a fund; for a new employee who does not choose, the employer must ask the ATO for any stapled fund and contribute to it; and failing both, contributions go to a fund named in the award that can accept the employee.
