Workplace pensions

What we do

We’ll assist you in setting up these schemes, completing the declaration of compliance, and then taking over the day-to-day administration from you.

Workplace pensions

Pension compliance

SAE assists all types of businesses ensuring they are compliant with workplace pension legislation.

The Government introduced workplace pensions to encourage employees to save for their future retirement. They’ve insisted that every employer with at least one member of staff has a duty to set up a suitable scheme for all eligible employees.

Contributions to the pension fund come from three sources:

The employee

Monthly contributions from your employee’s normal payslip.

The employer

Monthly contributions from your monthly turnover.

The government

HMRC will contribute a percentage to the pension fund.

Failure by employers to set up an appropriate scheme will lead to having fines being levied by the Pension Regulator.

Pension services for employers

The team at SAE is ready to meet your workplace pension scheme requirements.

An employer is required to keep records of all data involved with the scheme including contributions made. They’re required by law to ensure that all eligible workers are enrolled in an appropriate pension scheme at the correct time.

We can provide you:

Assistance

Information for employers

Contributions are made by each employee, the employer, and also the Government.

An employee can opt out of the scheme, but that means losing out on the employer and Government contributions which is equivalent to refusing a tax-free salary increase of 4%.

Every employer has to automatically enroll employees into a workplace pension who:

  • Are not currently in a scheme
  • Whose age is between 22 and state retirement age
  • Whose gross earnings exceed £10,000 per year
  • Who works in the U.K

Example

Jayne contributes £40, her employee contributes £30 and the Government gives £10 tax relief so that a total of £80 is paid into Jayne’s pension.
