Money Box Live: Auto-enrolment Workplace Pensions

Financial phone-in on auto-enrolment workplace pensions. Who is affected and how does it work?

Need to enrol your nanny, care worker or gardener in a pension scheme? Who's affected and how does it work? Call 03700 100 444 from 1pm to 3.30pm on Wednesday or e-mail moneybox@bbc.co.uk now.

The law on workplace pensions has changed and from 1 June if you employ at least one person or run a small business employing up to 30 staff, you may have to provide access to a pension scheme and pay into it.

If you want to find out more you can put your questions to the panel on Wednesday.

Which employees are affected? There are rules about age and earnings.

Who pays in to the scheme and how much?

When do you have to act?

If you use a nanny share which of you pays?

How does it work if you use direct payments to pay your carer?

What are your responsibilities as a small employer?

Or perhaps you are an employee and want to know how you can benefit?

Whatever your questions, joining Paul Lewis to talk you through the process will be:
Neil Esslemont from The Pensions Regulator.
Eddy Graham from Carers UK.
Helen Harvey, from Nannytax.

Call 03700 100 444 from 1pm to 3.30pm on Wednesday or e-mail moneybox@bbc.co.uk now. Standard geographic call charges apply.
