Dental Clinic Found Liable for Super Guarantee — Important Reminder for Health Practices

A recent decision by the Administrative Review Tribunal (ART) has confirmed that an oral health therapist engaged by a dental clinic was actually an employee for super guarantee (SG) purposes — even though the clinic treated her as an independent contractor.

This ruling is a timely reminder for medical, dental and allied health practices: the label on the contract doesn’t decide SG obligations — the substance of the working arrangement does.

🔍 What the ART found
The ART held that the therapist was an employee under the extended definition, which includes anyone working under a contract that is wholly or principally for their labour. Key factors included:

Employment‑like features in the contract
The agreement looked and operated more like an employment arrangement than a contractor relationship.

The therapist couldn’t practise independently
As a regulated professional, she relied on the clinic’s environment, systems and oversight.

She was engaged as part of the clinic’s integrated team
The purpose wasn’t to rent space or facilities — it was to personally provide services within the clinic’s operations.

No genuine right to delegate
The clinic couldn’t show she had the ability to subcontract or send someone else in her place.

Her pay wasn’t directly tied to her services
Remuneration was adjusted by the clinic based on patient invoices, indicating control over how she was paid.

💡 Why this matters for clinics
If a practitioner is deemed an employee under SG rules, the clinic becomes liable for:

-Super guarantee contributions

-Potential super guarantee charge if contributions weren’t made correctly

-Interest and administration fees

This case reinforces that contractor arrangements in health practices must be carefully structured — especially where practitioners work as part of a team, rely on clinic facilities, or have limited independence.

📣 Our advice
If you operate a medical, dental or allied health practice, now is a good time to:

Review practitioner agreements

Assess whether arrangements may fall under the extended definition of “employee”

Ensure SG obligations are being met to avoid costly assessments

We help clinics across Queensland navigate these rules with confidence. If you’d like a review of your practitioner arrangements, we’re here to support you.

ATO App Alerts & New Super Verification Step — What You Need to Know

The ATO has introduced an extra security step for anyone transferring or consolidating their super through ATO Online Services. This new measure is designed to protect your super from fraudulent activity and strengthen digital security across the system.

📲 What’s changing?
If you’ve registered your device using the ATO app, you’ll now be asked to verify any super transfer or consolidation request before it’s submitted.
🗓️ This applies from May 2026.

It’s a simple step — but an important one — helping ensure that only you can authorise movements of your super.

⚠️ About the 5 June ATO messages
On 5 June 2026, many taxpayers received unexpected ATO messages about changes to bank account details.
The ATO has confirmed these messages were triggered by a planned internal system update.

👉 No action is required based on that message alone.
Your bank details were not changed, and your account wasn’t compromised.

🔎 Still, stay alert
Even though this particular message was harmless, the ATO strongly recommends:

Keeping an eye on real‑time ATO app alerts

Reviewing your personal and bank details periodically

Acting quickly if anything looks unusual or unexpected

Staying proactive helps protect your tax and super information — and ensures you’re the first to know if something needs attention.

💬 Need help?
If you’re unsure about an ATO alert, super transfer, or anything that looks out of place, our team is here to help you check, verify, and stay secure.

Do You Have Super Held by the ATO? It’s Worth Checking

The ATO is reminding taxpayers that some of your superannuation money may actually be sitting with them — not in your usual super fund. This can happen more often than people realise, especially if you’ve changed jobs, moved house, or had multiple super accounts over the years.

💼 What types of super might the ATO be holding?
Unclaimed super money
This includes inactive, low‑balance accounts that your fund was required to transfer to the ATO.

Unpaid employer super guarantee (SG) amounts
If your employer couldn’t pay your SG into a fund — for example, if your fund details were incorrect — the ATO may be holding these amounts for you.

Government super contributions
Certain contributions (like co‑contributions or low‑income super tax offset amounts) may also be held temporarily by the ATO.

📲 How to check your ATO‑held super
You can quickly see if any super is waiting for you through:

-myGov (linked to the ATO)

-ATO Online Services

-The ATO app

It only takes a few minutes — and for many people, it’s a pleasant surprise to find extra super they didn’t know they had.

💬 Why this matters
Consolidating your super helps reduce fees, keeps your retirement savings growing, and ensures your money is working harder for you. If you discover ATO‑held super, you can transfer it to your preferred fund with just a few clicks.

TPAR Lodgment Reminder – Due 28 August Each Year

If your business pays contractors for certain services, you may need to lodge a Taxable Payments Annual Report (TPAR) with the ATO by 28 August each year.

This applies to businesses that pay contractors in industries such as:
🔹 Building & construction
🔹 Cleaning
🔹 Information technology
🔹 Road freight
🔹 Courier services
🔹 Security, investigation & surveillance

If you operate in any of these sectors and pay contractors, the ATO expects a TPAR — and they’re tightening compliance.

🚨 ATO Penalties Are Increasing
From 2025 onwards, the ATO will apply penalties to businesses that:
✔ Haven’t lodged their TPAR for previous years, and/or
✔ Have received three reminder letters without taking action

If your TPAR is overdue, it’s important to get on top of it now to avoid penalties and unnecessary ATO attention.

Not Sure If You Need to Lodge?
If your business doesn’t need to lodge a TPAR, you can submit a Non‑Lodgment Advice (NLA) form to let the ATO know.
Businesses that no longer pay contractors can also use the NLA to confirm they won’t need to lodge in future years.

Why This Matters
Staying up to date with TPAR obligations helps you:
• Avoid penalties and interest
• Reduce the risk of ATO reviews
• Keep your contractor records clean and compliant
• Maintain trust with suppliers and stakeholders

Tax Reform Updates for Small Businesses & Start‑Ups

The Federal Government has released new details on its tax reform package. There's some positive news for small business owners and early‑stage innovators, though not enough. As per usual the new announcements lack the big picture, are not thought through and good luck to all of us to put them in practice once legislated.

🔹 More Small Businesses Eligible for CGT Concessions
The turnover threshold for the 50% active asset CGT reduction will increase from $2 million to $10 million .
HOWEVER, the threshold for other small business CGT concessions does not change. Neither they qualify for CGT discount.

🔹 New CGT Discount for Start‑Ups
A proposed 50% CGT discount will apply to early‑stage investors, founders and employee share scheme participants in innovative start‑ups, with shares needing to be held for five years and subject to eligibility criteria .

Nothing like lack of clarity what innovation means...

🔹 Testamentary Trusts Clarified
Income from all types of testamentary trusts will be exempt from the minimum tax, providing certainty for families and estate planning .

🔹 Instant Asset Write‑Off Made Permanent
The Government will introduce legislation to make the $20,000 instant asset write‑off permanent for small businesses, supporting ongoing investment and cash flow management .

As of yesterday, the government is now having a dig at SMSF as well, which was untouched in the original budget announcements.

At Xperion, we’re across these changes (as much as one can be) and what they mean for your business structure, CGT planning, and future investment decisions. In saying that, we suggest holding off until the budget changes are fully legislated or we have more practical details before considering full restructuring.
