Automatic enrolment is the process by which an employer puts an eligible worker into a workplace pension scheme.
For a worker who meets the rules, joining the scheme happens through the employer. The employer enrols the worker and pays contributions. Eligibility depends on circumstances including age, earnings and where the person usually works. A vacancy that mentions a contributory pension describes a benefit. A payroll vacancy that asks for auto-enrolment experience is asking the employee to administer the process for other people.
