Auto-enrolment is coming

From 1 October 2012, the government is introducing auto-enrolment, which will improve the living standards of millions of people when they retire.

What is auto-enrolment?

It's a way of making sure all eligible employees automatically become members of a qualifying pension scheme, which is a scheme with a high enough level of contributions.

As an employer in the UK, you have a major role to play.

What does it mean for my company?

You'll have to make sure your company's approach to pensions meets the new legislation.

  • If you already have a pension scheme, you'll need to change it.
  • If you don't have a scheme yet, you'll need to set one up.

This site will help you and your financial adviser understand all that's required of you and find a solution that's right for you.
