Salary packaging
Salary packaging or salary sacrificing is when you package part of your pre-tax salary into income and benefits. You then pay for the benefits such as your mortgage or car payments out of your pre-tax income. This reduces how much income tax you pay.
We offer salary packaging to most staff members. Find out more about salary packaging on the Queensland Health website.
