So why does salary sacrifice work for you?
If you work for a not-for-profit organisation and are offered a salary-sacrificing package, you can use part of your gross income to pay for everyday living expenses. Salary Sacrificing also minimises your taxable income giving you more take-home pay.
In easy terms, you pay less tax and have more money in your back pocket. How can this be? Easy, your salary-sacrificed income is deducted first, and then you pay tax on the remaining income second. It's that easy.
