Insurance and superannuation - gender/sex, age, disabillity

Insurance and superannuation providers can seek an exemption for schemes discriminating against contributors on grounds of gender/sex, marital status, age or disability, so long as they are complying with prescribed standards under the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (Cth) or they base it on disclosed actuarial, statistical or other data from a reliable source, and the discrimination is reasonable on the basis of that data and any other relevant factors. The data must be produced in support.

In recognition of the deep history and culture of this island, Equal Opportunity Tasmania acknowledge and pay my respects to all Tasmanian Aboriginal people; the past and present custodians of the Land.

Equal Opportunity Tasmania’s Reflective Action Plan is the first step in our commitment to having a culturally safe workplace. Our plan allows for gaining a greater understanding and knowledge of Aboriginal Peoples, their culture and individual and collective experiences. We are committed to developing further plans that focus on fostering external respectful relationships with the Tasmanian Aboriginal community and providing a service that is culturally respectful and welcoming.
