Auto-Enrolment Pensions

Auto-Enrolment Pensions — What It Means for You

Employers must automatically enrol eligible staff into a workplace pension and contribute, under the auto-enrolment rules, with ongoing duties to assess new staff, make contributions and re-enrol periodically.

We set up your auto-enrolment scheme, assess your employees, handle the contributions and declarations, and manage the ongoing duties, so you meet the rules and avoid the penalties for getting it wrong.

Auto-enrolment is compulsory and comes with strict ongoing duties and deadlines, and The Pensions Regulator fines employers who miss them. Setting it up and running it correctly keeps you compliant.

The Detail That Matters

How Auto-Enrolment Pensions Work

Employers must automatically enrol eligible staff into a workplace pension and contribute, with ongoing duties to assess new staff, make contributions and re-enrol periodically. It is compulsory, and The Pensions Regulator penalises employers who slip.

The duty to enrol

You must assess your workers and automatically enrol those who are eligible (broadly aged 22 to state pension age earning over £10,000) into a qualifying workplace pension, and pay employer contributions on top of theirs.

Minimum contributions

The minimum total contribution is 8% of qualifying earnings, of which at least 3% must come from the employer. We calculate and manage these through your payroll each period.

Ongoing duties

Auto-enrolment is not a one-off: you must assess new starters, manage opt-outs and opt-ins, submit a declaration of compliance, and re-enrol eligible staff every three years.

Staying compliant

We set up a compliant scheme, integrate contributions into payroll, and handle the ongoing assessments, declarations and re-enrolment, so you never miss a duty or a deadline.

Auto-enrolment is an ongoing obligation with strict deadlines, and employers who treat it as a one-off setup risk penalties when they miss re-enrolment or fail to assess new starters.

Recent Client Outcome

How we kept an employer compliant with auto-enrolment

A small employer had set up auto-enrolment but was unsure about the ongoing duties and an approaching re-enrolment date.

What we did. We reviewed their scheme, handled the re-enrolment of eligible staff, submitted the declaration of compliance, and integrated the contributions into their payroll.

The outcome. They remained fully compliant and penalty-free, with the ongoing duties handled rather than left to chance.

Managing the ongoing cycle, not just the initial setup, kept them the right side of The Pensions Regulator.
