The University is scheduled to do this in June 2025. If you are not currently contributing to a pension scheme, you are likely to be enrolled in June (there are some exceptions to this, please see below).  This means you will have a pension deduction in your June payslip. You can then choose to remain as a member of the scheme or you can opt out. 

Exceptions to automatic enrolment:

• Colleagues aged 21 or under (although you can choose to enrol on a scheme, please follow the link below to find out how)
• Colleagues who are state pension age or older
• Colleagues who have opted out of scheme membership in the preceding 12 months (although you can choose to enrol into a scheme, please follow the link below to find out how).
• Colleagues earning less than £833 per month
