Board director fees
All Australia Post Board directors are appointed by the Commonwealth Government through the Shareholder Ministers. Board Directors’ annual fees are set by the Remuneration Tribunal. Australia Post has no role in determining the level of Board director fees.
The Remuneration Tribunal regularly reviews and sets Board director fees for the roles of Chair, Deputy Chair and other Board director fees (excluding statutory superannuation contributions which are paid in addition to the fees set by the Remuneration Tribunal). Board director fees cover all activities including Board membership and participation of most sub-Committees unless otherwise stated in the table below.
The following table sets out the Board directors’ fees (excluding superannuation) as set by the Remuneration Tribunal and covering the financial years 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020.
