Auto Enrolment is the term used for the compulsory setting up of a workplace pension scheme for most employers in the UK.
Certain workers will need to be automatically enrolled into the pension scheme.
Each Employer has a “staging date” which is dependent on the size of your business and when your PAYE scheme was registered. This staging date is the date you need to have a pension scheme in place and which you have to work all of your employer duties around.
To find out when your staging date is go to: www.thepensionsregulator.gov.uk/employers/staging-date.aspx
To find out more about your duties as an employer visit: www.thepensionsregulator.gov.uk/en/employers
All employees aged between 22 and State Pension Age earning £10,000 per year (£833.33 per month) MUST be automatically enrolled into a Workplace Pension scheme on your staging date (or up to 3 months following your staging date if you choose to take up the postponement period – a guide to Postponement can be found HERE).
If you are the sole Director of a limited company and do not have any other staff, the Auto Enrolment duties do not apply BUT you must still tell The Pensions Regulator that you are not an Employer.
