Setting up a limited company - Auto Enrolment and PSCs

Pension auto-enrolment came into force for large employers on October 2012. This duty requires directors/employers who have gone through a limited company formation to auto-enrol certain members of their workforce into a qualifying pension scheme and make contributions towards it. What this means is that employers must have a qualifying pension scheme in place. It also means that employers will have to assess workers on a regular basis to understand whether to include them in the scheme.

Auto-enrolment does not apply to single director/employee Personal Service Companies. If however, the company employs a second person, including a spouse or partner, auto –enrolment will apply.

Small employers of this nature have been allocated an automatic enrolment date of 1 April 2017. If you would like further guidance or advice on this topic, our specialist accountants at Genie Accountancy can help - give them a call. 01296 468 185
