Pensions auto-enrolment - 2012 a new horizon

Following a review commissioned by the coalition Government on the 27 October 2010, pensions auto-enrolment was ratified by the department for work and pensions (DWP). The Government is targeting employers that are not offering a qualifying workplace pension scheme (QWPS) and employees who are not saving for their retirement.  Auto-enrolment is the simplest way to quickly get more employed people to save for their retirement.

The commission also recommended that a low-cost default scheme be introduced alongside automatic enrolment to ensure that “supply could meet demand”. The Government will launch a suitable scheme under the banner of NEST (National Employment Savings Trust) which is aimed at those on low incomes.
