Increase in Workplace Pension Contributions

Posted on 27th March 2019

The minimum contributions you and your staff pay into your automatic enrolment workplace pension scheme will increase from 6 April 2019. It is your responsibility to make sure these increases are implemented.

All employers with staff in a pension scheme for automatic enrolment must take action to make sure at least the minimum amounts are being paid into their pension scheme. However, you don’t need to take any further action if you don’t have any staff in a pension scheme for automatic enrolment, or if you are already paying above the increased minimum amounts.

This table below shows the minimum contributions you must pay and the date when they must increase:

Date Employer minimum contribution Staff contribution Total minimum contribution

6 April 2019 onwards

3% 5% 8%
 

Current rate:
