Bookkeeping, payroll, HR and IT support for Adelaide businesses

No. Valont is Brisbane-based and works with Adelaide businesses remotely. The books, payroll and systems are cloud-based, the Trusted Advisor relationship runs on scheduled calls and video, and Valont travels to Adelaide for onboarding sessions or an annual planning day when a client prefers to meet in person.

Yes. Public holidays, workers compensation and payroll tax are set by jurisdiction, and Valont maintains a sourced, dated fact set for South Australia that its payroll process works from. For an Adelaide client that means the SA holiday calendar, including Adelaide Cup Day and the Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve part-day holidays, ReturnToWorkSA for workers compensation and the South Australian payroll tax threshold.

Adelaide employers pay South Australia payroll tax once annual Australian taxable wages pass $1.5 million ($1,500,000) a year, at 4.95%. For a Adelaide employer the RevenueSA adds: A variable rate (0% to 4.95%) phases in for annual Australian taxable wages between $1.5 million and $1.7 million; the maximum annual deduction is $600,000. These Adelaide figures were verified against the RevenueSA on 2 July 2026; confirm the current amount at the source before relying on it.

SafeWork SA is the work health and safety regulator for Adelaide employers, as it is across South Australia. Workers' compensation for Adelaide staff is a separate system: ReturnToWorkSA scheme, regulated by ReturnToWorkSA. Valont confirmed the Adelaide regulator details against the official site on 8 September 2026.

South Australia has 15 public holidays between 1 July 2026 and 30 June 2027 that apply to Adelaide rosters, from Labour Day on 5 October 2026 to King's Birthday on 14 June 2027.
