Cintra iQ has an Auto Enrolment facility, which takes you through the process of amending a pension scheme set up, defining which payment headings are pensionable and which headings are classed as Qualifying Earnings, running an assessment, and enrolling employees into the relevant Auto Enrolment scheme. Cintra iQ can also manage Opt ins and Opt outs.
Within each Addition Heading, you can select whether this addition heading is Qualifying Earning for Auto Enrolment Assessment.
Good to know
Non qualifying earning expenses can be a Car Allowance or an On-call Allowance. Both of which could be classed as a necessity of the role rather than a benefit. Therefore you can check the Qualifying Earning for Auto Enrolment Assessment option for the applicable Addition Heading.
