Salary Sacrificing

What is salary sacrificing or salary packaging?

Salary sacrificing or packaging is an arrangement between an employer (Queensland Health) and an employee, where the employer provides the employee with benefits in return for an agreed salary adjustment.

RemServ is responsible for the management of Queensland Health employees’ salary sacrificing arrangements.

Salary sacrifice benefit items can include:

Salary sacrificing allows you to make super contributions before income tax is paid

Typically, contributions you make to your super are made after you've paid income tax, which can be up to 46.5%1 of your salary. Salary sacrificing allows you to make contributions before income tax is paid – which may save you from paying high rates of tax and enable you to grow your super.
