Do you play fair?

The majority of taxpayers do the right thing when it comes to paying tax; however, you may know businesses that unfairly use cash to hide income and avoid tax. These business operators cheat the community and disadvantage Australians who pay their share.

Your choices and actions, as a consumer or in business, can help to protect you and ensure others play fair too.

Strong tax and super systems help sustain a strong community.
