A big gap exists between what people should save for retirement and what they actually do save. The government’s solution is auto enrolment. This puts the onus on employers and employees to contribute enough now to provide for the future. But it can be complex, and to work out who should enrol, and how much they need to contribute, you’ll need expert pensions advice.
Starting in October 2012 businesses had to automatically enrol employees into a workplace pension scheme. The number of employees you had on 1 April 2012 set the date for when you had to offer them a scheme. Even once you’ve set up a workplace pension, you still have to meet various rules and deadlines. Again, expert advice will help you make sense of it all.
We understand exactly how auto enrolment and group pension schemes work. We’ve advised all sorts of businesses on a range of different schemes. Our experience is that you’ll need up to 12 months to get ready for auto enrolment. But you need to have everything in place by your staging date, otherwise you could be fined. If you have any doubt at all about what you need to do, you should come and talk to us straight away.
