As a head contractor, keeping projects on track relies on dependable tradie subcontractors. So, supporting your tradies to understand and meet their tax and super obligations can reduce delays, minimise compliance risks and keep your jobs running smoothly.
We’ve now launched Building and construction tradies – tax essentials (TaxTools4Tradies) on our website – a quick way for them to find and understand key tax, super and registration obligations.
A practical resource for your workforce
Developed with industry input, TaxTools4Tradies provides clear, plain-language guidance tailored to real on-site and business scenarios. It brings together essential information on key tax, super and registration obligations across the lifecycle of a trade business – from getting started through ongoing operations to closing up shop.
TaxTools4Tradies also focuses on common problem areas where we see mistakes occur, so it can help your tradies get things right the first time. There’s also:
- links to training and useful resources
- quick access to more detailed guidance on specific topics
- information on support options if they fall behind or can’t meet their obligations.
Year-round support
TaxTools4Tradies is designed to support tradies throughout the year, not just at tax time. By sharing this resource with your tradies, you’ll help them build good habits and avoid costly mistakes. This is good for you, your tradies and the health of your industry.
