AIBU to think £1bn t/o company should provide a pension scheme

[NisekoWhistler]

Just weighing up job offers and in the contract of my preferred employer it states
"The company does not offer pension scheme membership at the present time. Any changes to this policy will be notified to the employee."

I thought this was illegal?
This is for a senior position if that's if any consideration.

Weird...

Do the other expected benefits make up for it? If the alternative job is offering a good pension scheme where they pay in a good percentage... then it would definitely be in alternative company's favour...

Pretty sure if you are in the UK you now have to offer a pension scheme to your employees.

It is illegal. They have to provide a scheme and pay in a certain percentage as well depending on how much you earn.

That's what I thought @cleaner

Maternity is basic, ie UK Statutory, not that impacts me as I don't think we want anymore.

No death in service mentioned.

There are shares which best over 4 years that equate to approximately 1 years worth of basic salary. But even so I think there should be a pension by law?

There should be some sort of pension provision under auto enrolment - although the statutory minimums are pretty shit. I'd query it.

Ditto what everyone else has said, its now law that your employees have to be auto-enrolled into a pension.

Hi ok great, will be sure to feedback and investigate further with the s

There must be one if they employ a lot of people. The fines are heavy if companies don't comply
