If you’re eligible for Parental Leave Pay, the Australian Taxation Office will pay a 12% superannuation contribution directly to your super fund. This is known as the Paid Parental Leave Superannuation Contribution (PPLSC).
If you share your Parental Leave Pay, each parent will get a PPLSC based on how many days they use.
The PPLSC will be paid automatically after the relevant financial year ends, starting from July 2026.
