Make Sure You Are Enrolled
If you are employed and earning more than £10,000 a year as a housekeeper, or indeed any job, you are entitled to be enrolled in the Auto-Enrolment workplace pension scheme.
This government programme aims to ensure that you are paying into a pension. The BIG plus for YOU, as a domestic staff worker is that in the domestic staff world, your employer not only enrols you…but pays your contribution as well.
If you are new to a job or have not heard of the scheme, ask your employer. The rules are that those earning £10,00 plus a year, have to be enrolled.
During the last financial year the number of fines for Pension Auto-Enrolment errors shot up to 35,810 from 14,650 the previous year.
