DESCRIPTION
Auto enrolment is part of the legislation changes that get employees to subscribe to a pension scheme.

Employees Employers
Employers are likely to ask for help to choose and run a good quality pension scheme. NetPayroll is linking up to all the main pension providers for Auto Enrolment giving the Employer the flexibility of choice whilst maintaining the efficiency of processing Auto Enrolment directly from their payroll software.
The Government wants to encourage all workers to save for
their retirement. From 2012, all employers, starting with the largest
employers first, must enrol their eligible workers into a workplace
pension, if they are not already.
All employers are legally required to automatically enrol certain staff into a pension scheme and make contributions. You will also have to tell your staff about the scheme you put them in and allow other staff to join if they request to do so.
Auto-Enrolment affects everybody.
Automatic enrolment means that, rather than having to actively choose to join a pension scheme, staff are put into one by their employer as a matter of course. If they don’t want to be in the pension scheme, they must actively choose to opt out. It’s to encourage people to stay in pension saving.

If you are employed you may be offeredmembership of your employer'sworkplace pension scheme. It is likelythat you will need to pay contributionsand these will be deducted from yoursalary and paid into the scheme by youremployer. Your employer is likely tocontribute to the scheme too, to add toyour savings. The contributions areinvested until you retire.
If you have an existing scheme for yourworkforce (perhaps called a ‘stakeholderscheme’) you should check with yourpension provider to see if you can use itfor automatic enrolment. If you need toopen a new scheme, make sure youapproach a pension provider in goodtime because they will be taking onthousands of employers in the comingmonths. Don’t leave it too late.
What does this mean for your business?
