Workplace Pension Recommendations

My daughter owns a small hairdressing salon with only one assistant who earns £1100pa. Her assistant is not concerned about a pension but has to have one because of legislation. My daughter doesn't want to get involved with paying over the odds for such minimum requirements.


Can anyone recommend a company that provides a 'no frills' Workplace Pension scheme with minimum costs.


Any advice appreciated.

    She can look at the government's auto enrolment pension NEST (http://www.nestpensions.org.uk/schemeweb/NestWeb/public/home/contents/homepage.html)

    or NOW pensions http://www.nowpensions.com/

    or the FSB pension scheme http://www.fsb.org.uk/pension-scheme
    Stephen Covey once said that "when you teach once, you learn twice". That is the primary reason for my participation on the forums as an IFA.

    Although I strive to provide accurate information in my posts, there may be the odd time when I fail. Yes I know it's hard to believe but even Your Hero can make mistakes. Apologies in advance.
  • Assuming that the figure you meant to type was £11,000 then she could use NEST and do it all on-line
  • Go for nest over fsb. Fsb might get better in future be there are grave concerns over Scottish Widows administration capacity right now.
