Assessment for Auto Enrolment
First you invite your worker to join the workplace pension scheme. You can postpone the assessment for up to 3 months. If they do not join at inception you must assess the worker for automatic enrolment at 3 months. If they are ‘eligible’ you must then put them into the scheme.
There are minimum contributions that need to be collected and paid across to the pension scheme There are deadlines for getting the contributions across to the Pension Scheme.
Setting up a Workplace Pension or Pension Scheme Review
Not all pensions are equal, some are better than others. Minimum contributions must be paid and there are 4 different contribution options: Default: Qualifying Earnings, Set 1, 2, & 3. It is important that your staff pension scheme works for your business, therefore it should be aligned with the needs of your workforce to ensure you get the best value out of the scheme for its members.
We can review your existing scheme and help you make any changes to better accommodate your needs or guide you to the most appropriate scheme to suit the needs of your workforce.
Staff Pension Clinic
No matter how good the pension scheme is, most staff don’t understand the benefits. It is important to engage the staff so that they fully understand the benefits and value the arrangement that you have put in place for them.
The Pension House will visit your organisation and deliver a presentation to the staff explaining the benefits of the pension. We also provide the staff with access to the advisers at The Pension House giving your staff the opportunity to ask for guidance.
