Automatic enrolment is a Government initiative to help more people save for later life through their pension scheme at work. We are required to auto enrol all temporary workers aged 22 and above to the company’s pension scheme.
Under the Pensions Act 2008, all employers in the UK must put certain staff into a pension scheme and contribute towards it. Once your booking has been confirmed we will send you a letter with all the information about pension auto enrolment.

Once you start work, our standard procedure is to auto-enrol you into our pension scheme from Day 1. In some circumstances we may reserve the right to postpone this enrolment to week 12 but if this is the case your Consultant will discuss this with you detailing the reasons.
Once enrolled, our pension provider NEST will send you a Welcome Pack within 2 weeks. If you do not wish to contribute to this pension scheme you will need to contact NEST directly.
Each week your payslip will show pension contributions made by you in the deductions column. In addition we will administer the employer contribution payments into your fund. Further information is detailed in your temp starter pack or can be found
