Department forgets to pay 8 years of Superannuation payments
March 22, 2007
Well if it can happen to him, it can happen to you. That’s why the Union is urging all members to have a good look at their Superannuation statement’s to see if the Department has made regular and consistent payments to your retirement nest egg.
If there is a shadow of a doubt about your Superannuation statement contact the Department’s pay roll office on (02) 92652838.
If you’re not satisfied with their help (which you should request in writing) don’t hesitate to contact your Union.
Whether or not you contact the payroll office, the Union will require the Department to audit its superannuation payments across the Brigade and we will follow up any additional discrepancies that may be unearthed.
You can also be rest assured that the Department will be compensating the particular firie who has missed out on 8 years of contributions, with interest, as well.
Who would have thought?

Recently the Union was approached by a member with a story that on first glance appeared to be unbelievable. His superannuation statement seemed frozen in time, despite working for the Brigade for years. However it’s true; The Department has acknowledged that it has some how forgotten to pay any superannuation payments for this Union member between 1999 and 2006.
