I'm an employer who doesn't have to provide a pension now

Based on the information you've provided you still need to complete the steps below. Your automatic enrolment duties start when you employ your first member of staff (duties start date).

If you don't have staff who must be put into a pension scheme now, you still have other duties which include completing your declaration of compliance. Remember, automatic enrolment is your legal duty and if you don't act in time you could be fined. You'll also need to monitor your staff's circumstances in case you need to put any staff into a scheme in the future.

Use our duties timeline to help you work out what you need to do and by when. Just enter your duties start date.

Duties timeline - what you need to do and by when

Select the date that your first member of staff started working for you. This is known as your duties start date.
For example, 27 3 2007
