The 2008 Pension Act has meant that all companies must now start planning for the introduction of the compulsory Qualifying Workplace Pension Scheme (QWPS) which will be phased in from October 2012. The pension regulators will impose hefty fines on those companies that are not prepared or fail to comply with the law. From our experience, many companies are not yet aware of the law and the requirements that it holds.

Over the coming months we will be holding presentations for local companies, so if you would like to register your interest to keep fully up to speed with what you need to know, please email your details to Jeremy.leslie-smith@alexanderprice.co.uk or telephone 01202 840900.
