We often receive queries in terms of how to set up a sole trader business structure. Sole trader is an individual running a business. It is the simplest and cheapest business structure. If you operate your business as a sole trader, you are the only owner and you control and manage the business. You are legally responsible for all aspects of the business. Debts and losses can't be shared with other individuals.
You can employ workers in your business, but you can’t employ yourself. As a sole trader, you are responsible for paying your worker's super. You're also responsible for your own super and may choose to pay it into a fund for yourself to help save for your retirement.
