Quick EOY STP Finalisation Check

Hi Rav,

Can I please check two things with you regarding the STP finalisation for EOFY:

1. Salary Sacrifice Superannuation
Is it correct that salary sacrifice to super is shown under Gross Earnings, RESC, and Pre-Tax Deductions?
I know I asked this last year, but it still feels counterintuitive to me — since the point of a salary sacrifice arrangement is to reduce gross earnings. However, I believe this is correct under STP Phase 2 reporting, but I’d really like to triple check.

2. WorkCover Income Payments
Where an employee is receiving WorkCover income payments but is not working at all — is this reported under Leave?
I understand this should be reported with the ā€œWā€ code, but I’m unsure where I can view the STP reports lodged with the ATO to confirm this code is coming through correctly.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Cheers,
