WHAT’S THE MAZE?
It’s Automatic Enrolment into Pensions
Since late 2012 new legislation dictates that under certain circumstances
when you work for a production company you might be auto-enrolled into a
Workplace Pension Scheme of THEIR choice.
How can I avoid The Maze?
You can’t - you are already in it…
UNLESS you are a member of the
Equity Pension Scheme (EPS).
It’s YOUR choice.
The EPS is the only Industry wide pension arrangement that ALL UK employers
will contribute to if you are engaged on a qualifying contract.
These UK employers cover your work in Theatre, Television, Film and Radio.
You do not have to be a member of Equity to join the EPS.
NOTE:
If you are auto-enrolled you can elect to opt out at any time.
‘How can you change this to YOUR
choice and escape The Maze?’
