At the moment the employer can choose to contribute or not unless you have a contract that explicitly states they will pay 3% with no provision to allow amendments.
From 2012 though it will be compulsary for them to contribute that money as it will for all employers. (or equivalent or higher amount)I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.0 -
