Part 1: Legal risk Scenario 1 - Superannuation law Noor manages payroll for The Event Co., a part of The Experience Co-operative. Noor is new to the organisation and is highly experienced in superannuation compliance for payroll. During a recent sample audit, Noor discovered superannuation payments had not been updated to the new rate by the due date required.

Noor would like your help in understanding the legal risk and compliance requirements in ensuring superannuation is paid correctly.
