Automatic Enrolment
The Pensions Regulator has created an easy, step-by-step guide to help employers with setting up automatic enrolment.
“The law on workplace pensions has changed. Every employer with at least one member of staff now has new duties, including enrolling those who are eligible into a workplace pension scheme and contributing towards it. This is called automatic enrolment.”
This is a legal duty and cannot be avoided if you employ one or more staff.
Many employers have already received a letter explaining the process and notifying them of their staging date. The online guide can tell you who is eligible and who has a right to opt-in.
Eligibility is based on income, not hours contracted or worked, so it likely that removals porters on zero hours contracts will also be either automatically enrolled or given the option to opt-in.
The guide can be found at www.thepensionsregulator.gov.uk/employers/getting-started.aspx
