I have a sole trader contractor who is paid for their labour (hours worked). Our contract states that their hourly rate is inclusive of superannuation obligations. They have verbally told me to pay the entire amount of their invoice to them, and that they deposit the superannuation portion of each invoice into their superannuation fund. Someone has just told me that I am legally obligated to pay the superannuation portion directly to their superannuation fund and should not be leaving it to them to do this. What are my obligations? Is it okay to continue paying the entirety of the invoice to the contractor?
