Auto-Enrolment & NEST


The government introduced legislation with the aim of making people save more for their retirement. It requires all UK employers to ‘auto-enrol‘ eligible workers into an employer pension scheme. An employer will have to enrol all UK based employees into a workplace pension if all of the following criteria apply:

  • Earnings are more than £10,000 a year (tax year 2014/15)
  • They are not already in a suitable employer pension scheme
  • They are at least 22 years old, but under state pension age

There is a minimum initial level for employer pension contributions to be paid for employees who opt in. This increases in stages until the overall amount to be contributed to each individual employee’s pension pot will be minimum of 8%, broken down as follows:

  • A minimum of 3% by the employer
  • The balance by the individual employee, via payroll, who will get tax relief on their payment

As well as the cost of contributions the employer will also need to bear the implementation costs for the business – including providing information for employees.
