National Pension Savings Scheme: New legislation that will force employers to contribute to employees' pensions.Under NPSS, also called Personal Accounts:
Employers will have to contribute 3% (earnings will be banded, approximately £5,000-£33,000)
Employees will pay in 4% of their salary
The Government will contribute 1% in tax relief.
All UK employees will automatically be enrolled - unless they are members of an occupational pension scheme which has contribution rates above those of the NPSS. Occupational schemes must meet minimum standards.
