Understanding Workplace Pensions for Night Shift Workers

Auto-Enrolment Minimum

UK law requires minimum 8% total contribution (5% employee, 3% employer) for workers earning over £10,000/year. Many employers offer more.

Salary Sacrifice Benefits

Salary sacrifice saves both income tax (20%) and National Insurance (10%), making it more tax-efficient than relief at source for basic rate taxpayers.

Night Shift Premiums Should Be Pensionable

If your night shift premium is a regular part of your pay, it should be included in pensionable salary. Check your contract and ask your employer if unsure.
