Keep Records

Certain records must be kept about your staff and about the pension scheme.

Certain records must be kept about your staff and about the pension scheme. Some of these will be kept by the pension scheme, some must be kept by the employer. These include:

  • names and addresses of staff you’ve automatically enrolled
  • the contributions payable to the pension scheme and when they were paid
  • any opt-in or opt-out notices you receive
  • name and address of the pension scheme
  • employer pension scheme reference or pension scheme registry number

Make sure you know what these records are and where to get them from. You’ll also need to decide how you’ll store them so you can easily access them. You’ll need to be able to produce these records if we ask to see them. Keeping records is good governance and is proof that you’ve carried out your duties.

These records must be kept for a specified time, which in most cases is six years.

    I have worked with JLP now for doing my own personal payrol, even though i have no employees I am on the payrol too.
    The value and level of service you get from Julie and the team is exceptional. I was
    … More originally using my accountant and I didn't realise how much they were charging for this service, not only are JLP good and the experts in their field, they are cheaper then accountant too.
    If anything ever changes all I have to do is a quick email and I know that everything is under control and nothing is ever an issue. Thank you.
    If you pay yourself or have staff then i highly recommend that you get in touch with Julie.
