Pension auto-enrolment jobs

It is likely that in recent months your organisation will have been assessing how pension auto-enrolment will affect your business. The introduction of which makes it more important than ever that your company’s pension scheme is diligently supervised by a pension professional.

Pension auto-enrolment is a new law that means every employer is required to automatically enrol employees in a workplace pension scheme if certain factors apply. Dependent on the pension plan you currently have in place you may find that this has a substantial affect on your yearly budget.

How does auto-enrolment work?

If the following apply to an employee, an employer is now legally obliged to automatically enrol them in a workplace pension scheme:

• They are aged between 22 and State Pension age
• Their income exceeds £9,440 a year
• They work in the UK

It is likely that some, if not all of your employees are already enrolled in a pre-existing workplace pension scheme and therefore you should not be required to make any changes. However, if you are not contributing to employee pensions, you will soon be obliged to do so.
