SmartSalary

ECU has engaged a professional salary packaging bureau, SmartSalary, to assist eligible employees to optimise their remuneration by receiving their salary as a combination of cash and tax effective benefits.

Salary Packaging is an Australian Taxation Office (ATO) approved means of restructuring your income to make your salary work for you. Normally your employer would pay you in the form of a cash salary after tax deductions. You would then pay expenses and make purchases from this after-tax salary.

Salary Packaging involves restructuring your salary by choosing to receive your salary as a combination of cash and approved fringe benefits that are paid out of your pre-tax salary. Employees can customise their Salary Package by choosing benefits that best suit their individual needs. Salary Packaging provides individuals with the option of including a range of benefits that offer both convenience and the advantage of using their income more effectively. Salary Packaging is not compulsory and may be entered into or cancelled at any time.
