9 SUPERANNUATION9.4 STATE SUPERANNUATION SCHEME (SSS)9.4.1 INTRODUCTIONThe State Superannuation Scheme (SSS) is a defined benefit scheme governed by theSuperannuation Act 1916 and the State Authorities Non-contributory Superannuation Act 1987and administered by Pillar on behalf of the scheme’s Trustee.9.4.2 MEMBERSHIP OF SSSThe SSS closed to new members on 30 June 1985.The standard entitlements for members are the employer and contributor financed benefit and theadditional ‘basic benefit’. The basic benefit is an employer financed benefit equivalent to 3% offinal average salary for each year of service from 1 April 1988.9.4.3 SSS CONTRIBUTIONS FOR MEMBERS ON "APPROVED LEAVE""Approved leave" is a period of leave without pay during which the member:• is on sick leave without pay*;• gets workers' compensation payments;• is on maternity/adoption leave without pay*;• is seconded to a non-fund employer;• does union duties (six months or less, approved by the Department);• does approved duties for the Department or the State;• is on service with the naval, military or air forces of the Commonwealth;• is on approved study leave without pay* (with financial assistance only).* The Commonwealth’s occupational superannuation standards prohibit employer-sponsoredsuperannuation funds from accepting contributions for persons who have not beenemployed either full-time or part-time (at least ten hours a week) during the previous twoyears. From 1 January 1994, a continuous period of "approved leave" for more than twoyears of sick, maternity, adoption or study leave without pay ceases to be "approved leave"and Pillar must be advised. The member cannot elect to pay the employer contributionsand must take a reduction in unit entitlement (the member must continue to pay theiremployee contributions).Pillar must be advised of "approved leave", however, the Leave Without Pay Election Form is notfilled in.During "approved leave" the member does not have to pay the employer contributions. However,the member has to pay their personal contributions for the whole of the period of leave withoutpay (payment must be arranged through contacting the State Superannuation ContributionsSection at Pillar).Handbook for non teaching staff in schools Page 9 − 7
