The employment details you provide help us to work out insurance entitlements for our GESB Super and West State Super members, so it’s important you comply with our reporting standards.

Here’s how you need to report the FTE value of your employees when sending your contributions file through Employer Online:

• If your employee is defined as ‘casual’, the FTE value should be ‘0’ (zero)
• If your employee is defined as a permanent employee, contractor, or anything other than casual, the FTE is calculated as the ratio of their normal hours (excluding overtime) to the normal award or agreed hours of a full-time employee under their award or agreement
  
  For example:
  • For an employee working full time, the FTE value is 100
  • For an employee working four days per week from a possible five, the FTE value is 80

If you’re unable to work out the FTE value for an individual employee who isn’t casual, please report an FTE value of 100.

For further guidance, please read the instructions in column 75 on pages 17 and 18 of our SuperStream Alternative File Format (SAFF) data specification.
