Personal Contribution Super is where an employee elects to deduct super from their salary after tax to put into their super fund. They may or may not deduct this later in their tax return subject to ATO approvals. It is not reported via STP generally or as RESC in STP either .
This type of contribution by the employee is not to be confused with Salary Sacrifice Super which is reported via STP as RESC.
