From the deduction for insurance fees in July 2025, the way employer paid insurance fees will be administered will be changing for members of HESTA Corporate Super whose employer pays some or all of their insurance fees. The insurance fee deductions undertaken in July 2025 will be for the relevant fees from 29 to 31 March, and the months of April, May and June. If your employer pays for some or all of your insurance fees, it will be detailed in the Member plan schedule for your employer plan.
The cost of your cover will be deducted monthly from your HESTA Corporate Super account. From July, the amount your employer pays for insurance will be allocated to your account as an additional concessional contribution to meet the cost of your employer paid insurance, rather than paid directly by your employer to the insurer and bypassing your account.
Due to the change in payment administration for employer paid insurance fees, members will now receive a tax rebate within their accounts for the insurance fees. The amount paid by the employer continues to count towards the member’s concessional contributions cap.
Insurance fee to 28 March 2025 | Insurance fee from 29 March 2025 |
---|---|
Employer pays the insurance fee directly, does not appear in the member’s account but counts towards member’s concessional contributions cap. | Employer pays an additional contribution to the member’s account to cover the insurance fee. The amount of the additional contribution counts towards the member’s concessional contributions cap for the financial year in which the contribution is received. |
No tax rebate passed on to the member for the amount of the employer paid insurance fee. | The fund claims a tax deduction on the insurance fees, and this is applied to insured members account as a rebate of 15% of the insurance fee. |
