B&CE Benefit Schemes, the workplace pension provider to over 1.6 million people, today announces Morgan Sindall Group plc, the leading UK construction and regeneration group with a turnover of £2.2 billion, is the latest customer to sign up to its newly established pension scheme, The People’s Pension.
The scheme, launched in November last year as a real solution to auto-enrolment, will provide a pension scheme to over 2,200 Morgan Sindall Group plc operatives, who are paid on a weekly basis once auto-enrolment commences for the organisation.
The Construction and Infrastructure division’s HR Operations Manager, Shirley Haines says: “Working with B&CE has been a really great experience, because they’ve explained pensions and auto-enrolment in terms that we and our employees are able to understand. The topic of pensions can be very daunting to some.”
Starting from October 2012, pension changes being introduced require every employer to automatically enrol eligible employees into a compliant workplace pension scheme.
Shirley Haines continues: “No one should underestimate the impact auto-enrolment will have on their business. I don’t really think that employers at this moment in time have realised just how big this is going to be. We are confident having worked with B&CE for many years that The People’s Pension will deliver a hassle-free solution that will support the needs of both our business and our employees. ”
In reaction, B&CE Director of Customer Development, Paul Murphy, comments: “The People’s Pension has received a hugely positive reaction from across the industry and existing and potential customers, including those outside construction. Morgan Sindall Group plc has been with B&CE since 1995 and they clearly understand the value of the service and support we provide to them and their employees. It is great to have early recognition from such a valued customer that The People's Pension is the right choice for their organisation for auto-enrolment.”
