The Australian Council of Trade Unions (ACTU) has welcomed the Albanese Government's changes to the superannuation system, aiming to make it fairer and address existing inequities.
The reforms include adjustments to the Low-Income Superannuation Tax Offset (LISTO), which ensures low-income workers pay less tax on their superannuation than on their take-home pay.
Today's announcement means support will go to those who need it most.
These changes, combined with the Government's plan to limit excessive tax concessions on high superannuation balances, will make the superannuation system fairer.
