Help your employees make sense of their super

Superannuation is designed to provide financial security during your employees’ retirement years, but navigating the world of super can be complex and confusing.

Many people lack a clear understanding of how superannuation works and how to optimise it for their benefit. This lack of knowledge can lead to missed opportunities, inadequate retirement savings, and even financial insecurity in old age.

Since employers are often first to introduce people to superannuation, they can often be the go-to for staff to find out more about how they can grow their super and better their retirement.

You can empower your staff to make more informed decisions about their retirement savings by ensuring they are aware of how to access Vision Super’s educational tools and resources.

Employees can boost their super knowledge either by browsing the interactive modules available on our website or by attending an in-person retirement seminar hosted by Vision Super.

Learn the essentials of super online or in person

Vision Super’s educational, on demand content allows your staff to access information at their own pace when it suits them. Whether the employee is just starting their career or nearing retirement, they can find content to suit their needs.

There are eight chapters provided by Money101 which cover:

  • How to choose a super fund, and how to identify the key features that matter
  • What super is, and how to read and understand your statement
  • How to contribute and the difference between contribution types
  • Retirement – the basics, funding your retirement, and transitioning into it
  • Cyber security and keeping your accounts secure

Employees can visit www.visionsuper.com.au/education at any time to browse the chapters that are relevant to them. It’s quick, easy, and always available.

Vision Super can also help facilitate education by running one-hour seminars at your workplace to discuss superannuation, investment options, expectations leading up to retirement, financial advice, salary sacrificing and understanding the current financial environment we are in and ways to manage cost of living pressures.

If you would like further information about our seminar program, please call our employer hotline on 1300 304 947 between 8.30am and 5pm Monday to Friday. Or you can email us anytime at [email protected].

Last year, Vision Super was honoured with the Service Quality award at the Super Review 10th Annual Super Fund of the Year Awards for demonstrating superior speed and quality of service in response to members’ needs.

This recognition is a testament to our commitment to providing exceptional service to our members and employers, and our educational tools and resources are just another way we offer support.
