This one day seminar looks at the whole export function. It provides a perfect introduction for new staff, is ideal as a revision exercise for staff who may be a little “rusty” and need to get up to date, and as an overview for supervisors and management who have to understand what their staff are doing.
The masterclass will be of use to employers and anyone working closely with businesses in a professional capacity. Each session will last around 1.5 hours with questions.
With a wave of over 1 million employers set to implement automatic enrolment solutions over the next 3 years it is more important than ever to start planning early.
This masterclass will set out the fundamentals of automatic enrolment to keep you one step ahead of game. We will aim to answer the following questions and much more:
Why has Automatic Enrolment been introduced?
How will Automatic Enrolment impact us?
How much will Automatic Enrolment Cost us?
Is our existing pension scheme compliant?
What happens if we don’t comply?
What option do we have?
When should we start preparing?
What should we do now?
We will then go on to consider ways appropriately structured employee benefits can support the aims of the business by underpinning a positive culture.
