Your Fund

NESS was formed in 1987 specifically to provide superannuation benefits for employees of employers in the electrical contracting, communication and associated industries in New South Wales. NESS is still dedicated to providing those services to employers, members and their beneficiaries. 

NESS is a non-profit organisation that does not pay commissions. All the earnings, less a small Contingency Reserve, go to members every year.

The Trustee responsible for managing NESS is the New South Wales Electrical Superannuation Scheme Pty Limited (ABN 28 003 156 812), which comprises member representatives from the Electrical Trades Union (ETU)  and employer representatives from the National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA).
