What is Automatic Enrollment?

The government mandates that employers enroll eligible employees into a workplace pension scheme to support retirement savings. To qualify for automatic enrollment, employees must meet these criteria:

  • Earn at least £10,000 annually (£833 per month)
  • Be 22 years of age or older
  • Be below the state pension age
  • Typically work within the UK

Employees who do not meet these requirements will not be automatically enrolled but may still have the option to join the scheme.

If an employee meets the criteria, they will be automatically enrolled into the Remote Technology Services workplace pension scheme, managed by Scottish Widows, at the end of their third month of employment.

Employees can choose to join the pension scheme before the end of the 3-month postponement period. To opt-in, please contact the Remote Technology Services Pension Account at: uk_pension@remote.com.
