Pension Auto Enrolment for Employers
Auto-enrolment isn't something you get around to once a business feels 'big enough' — the duty starts from the day your first eligible employee joins, and The Pensions Regulator does not treat 'we're still a small business' as a valid reason to have missed it. Assess every new employee, write to them about their rights, and get eligible staff enrolled within strict statutory timeframes.
Get it wrong, and the consequences escalate — from a compliance notice, through fixed penalties, up to daily escalating penalty notices for employers who don't act. It's one of the most commonly overlooked duties among growing small businesses, precisely because it isn't triggered by a familiar tax deadline, it's triggered by a hiring decision.
Hayes Chartered Certified Accountants and Tax Consultants provides Pension Auto Enrolment support alongside our Payroll service for employers across Hayes, West London and the UK — assessment, scheme set up, ongoing compliance, and re enrolment when it's due.
