When Peter Myall’s employer of 20 years wound up last year, he didn’t just lose his job. He was also owed $15,000 in unpaid super. “As far as I’m concerned my super money’s been kissed goodbye – I don’t believe I’m ever going to get it,” he says.
Myall, a timber tradie who makes roofs and trusses, is one of a group of seven employees of Timber Tech Pty Ltd represented by the Construction, Forestry, Maritime, Mining and Energy Union in South Australia who are owed at least $130,000 in unpaid super.
