Event information

More than 60% of employers have unseen auto-enrolment compliance risks. Could you be one of them?

Auto-enrolment can look simple on the surface, but most employers are getting key parts of it wrong without realising.

Independent reviews across the UK show that over 60% of employers have at least one compliance breach. These issues often sit unnoticed for years and can lead to financial penalties, extra administration, and reputational damage once uncovered.

This short in-person session gives you clear, practical guidance on what the law requires, where compliance breaks down, looks at four real-world case studies and how to spot issues in your own scheme before they escalate.


What our workshops cover

In our fast-paced 35-minute briefing, you will learn:

  • Why over 60 percent of UK employers have compliance gaps and how these issues develop over time
  • The five most common auto-enrolment risks that organisations overlook
  • How administration, governance and outdated processes create hidden non-compliance
  • How to identify errors in your own scheme, including those involving former employees
  • Real examples of breaches uncovered in recent employer reviews
  • How many employers have been underpaying contributions to those on parental leave
  • The simple steps you can take to understand whether you are meeting your legal duties

You will also hear about proven approaches UK employers are using to fix issues quickly and reduce ongoing risk.

This session is designed to enable you to answer one question with complete clarity:
Are you breaking the law, or are you compliant?


Who should attend

This session is for private sector employers, including private schools and businesses of all sizes.
It is not designed for public sector employers or organisations with government-managed pension arrangements.


Why it matters

Compliance is black and white. You are either meeting your duties or you are not.
Many employers only discover breaches when the regulator contacts them or when staff raise concerns. Fixing historic issues can be time consuming and costly, especially when former employees are involved.

Understanding your position now can prevent long-term complications.


What happens after the session

If you want further support, you can book a one-to-one compliance review to examine your own scheme in more detail. This is entirely optional. The workshop itself is free.


Reserve your place
Seats are limited to ensure discussion time and practical examples.
