‘Universal super is terrific, but it’s not universally fair’ changes need to be systemic and cultural to address the poorer outcomes for women #paulschroder @AustralianSuper #womeninsuper @womeninsuper

Women in aggregate only receive $1 in every $3 in tax concessions in super. This lack of equity must be addressed - women should receive their fair share. Pay $1000 into super for lower income earners #womeninsuper @womeninsuper @aistbuzz https://t.co/P9EfSGXJzv

AIST has welcomed today’s introduction to Parliament of legislation to remove the minimum $450 monthly salary threshold that currently prevents at least 311,000 workers from receiving compulsory employer super contributions. https://t.co/BiH8ARK0CZ

There’s no excuse for our gender lay gap reporting to be the worst in the world. Without sunlight on this issue it will never be addressed and women will continue to experience poverty in retirement

[AIST @aistbuzz]

The fact that Australia ranks equal last in the world in gender pay gap reporting means that we cannot fix what we cannot see. We need to do more to improve the gender pay gap and super gap, improve transparency and pay super on paid parental leave. https://t.co/TeV9ujbHUc
