What is auto-enrolment?

Every employer with at least one member of staff has new duties, including enrolling those who are eligible into a qualifying workplace pension scheme and paying minimum contributions into the pension fund.

This process is automatic for employees – they don’t have to do anything to be enrolled into your pension scheme – it happens automatically as part of your payroll process as long as they meet the criteria.
