The increases ensure the benefits keep pace with economic conditions (likely reflecting inflation or wage growth adjustments).\n\n**Who it affects:** Commonwealth employees and retirees covered by the productivity benefit scheme."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/superannuation-productivity-benefit-declaration-no-1","history":"/api/acts/superannuation-productivity-benefit-declaration-no-1/history","analysis":"/api/acts/superannuation-productivity-benefit-declaration-no-1/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/superannuation-productivity-benefit-declaration-no-1/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/superannuation-productivity-benefit-declaration-no-1/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/superannuation-productivity-benefit-declaration-no-1/documents"}}
