    Default Work cover costs

    Hi all,

    Have a quick question. I looked into work cover for some employees I had a few years ago and had prices of around $2k for the year

    The employees drove me bananas so ditched that idea and went back to just working on my own and using subbies.

    I now have found a great worker and called up about work cover. Price in now $4k+ for up to $100K wage. Not sure if this is the going rate now? Seems a little steep?

    Anyone who can confirm this is the rate? Or am I missing something

    Cheers Rick

    SA is 2.96% worked out on all INCOME and SUPER

    The rate is more if you work above 3m

    Not willing to share info with your fellow indi's Johnny boy. What no love for the rest of us.

    Seems way to steep to me HH. I'd say between $900 and $1500 depending on a few things but that'll give you a ballpark. Be interested to hear what others think.
