Auto Enrolment Pension Services That Keep You Fully Compliant
Every UK employer must auto-enrol eligible staff into a workplace pension and contribute at least three percent of qualifying earnings. ABM Chartered Accountants manages your entire auto-enrolment obligation, from scheme setup and assessments to contributions, opt-outs, and re-enrolment.
Workplace Pensions Managed by Chartered Accountants
Auto-enrolment requires you to assess every employee each pay period, enrol those who qualify, calculate and pay contributions, handle opt-outs, and re-enrol opted-out staff every three years. Missing any of these duties puts you in breach of The Pensions Regulator’s rules. ABM Chartered Accountants takes care of the entire process as part of your payroll.
Our ICAEW and ACCA qualified accountants set up your workplace pension scheme, assess each employee’s eligibility using the current thresholds, calculate contributions on qualifying earnings, submit data to your pension provider, and issue the statutory communications your staff must receive within six weeks of assessment.
What Our Auto Enrolment Service Covers
From setting up your pension scheme to managing re-enrolment, here is how ABM Chartered Accountants keeps your workplace pension duties fully compliant with every pay run.
Eligibility Assessments
Assessing every employee each pay period to determine their category and auto-enrolment status.
Pension Scheme Setup
Selecting a qualifying pension provider and setting up your workplace scheme ready for enrolment.
Contribution Management
Calculating employer and employee pension contributions on qualifying earnings every pay period.
Opt-Out Processing
Handling employee opt-outs within the statutory window and processing refunds of contributions paid.
Re-Enrolment
Managing your three-yearly re-enrolment duty to bring eligible opted-out staff back into pension.
TPR Compliance
Completing your declaration of compliance with The Pensions Regulator and maintaining your records.
Pension Duties Met Without the Admin Burden
The Pensions Regulator has the power to issue compliance notices, fixed penalty notices of 400 pounds, and escalating daily penalties for employers who fail to meet their auto-enrolment duties. These penalties apply to late enrolments, missed contributions, and failure to complete your declaration of compliance. ABM Chartered Accountants prevents all of it.
Getting auto-enrolment right also protects your employees. Their pension contributions build up over years and even small errors now compound into larger problems at retirement. We make sure the right amount goes to the right provider every pay period and that every statutory letter reaches your staff on time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to the auto-enrolment questions we hear most often. Contact our team for tailored guidance.
What is auto-enrolment?
Auto-enrolment is the legal requirement for employers to enrol eligible staff into a workplace pension scheme and contribute towards it. Eligible employees are those aged 22 to State Pension age who earn 10,000 pounds or more per year. ABM Chartered Accountants manages the process for you.
How much do employers have to contribute?
The minimum employer contribution is 3 percent of qualifying earnings. Qualifying earnings are the portion of pay between 6,240 and 50,270 pounds per year. Together with the employee’s 5 percent contribution, the total minimum is 8 percent. You can choose to contribute more if you wish.
What happens if an employee opts out?
An employee can opt out within one month of receiving their enrolment letter. If they opt out in time, their contributions are refunded in full. You must not encourage employees to opt out, and you must re-enrol them approximately every three years.
What is re-enrolment?
Re-enrolment is the duty to bring eligible employees who previously opted out back into your pension scheme roughly every three years. ABM Chartered Accountants tracks your re-enrolment date, assesses which employees qualify, enrols them, and issues the required communications automatically.
What is the declaration of compliance?
The declaration of compliance is a submission you must make to The Pensions Regulator within five months of your duties start date. It confirms that you have set up a qualifying scheme and enrolled your eligible staff. ABM Chartered Accountants completes and submits it for you.
How much do your auto-enrolment services cost?
Auto-enrolment management is included as part of our payroll processing service. Fees are based on the number of employees and your payroll frequency. Contact ABM Chartered Accountants for a transparent, fixed-fee quote tailored to your business.
