Salary exchange is an arrangement where employees exchange part of their salary in return for an employer pension contribution. Because the salary is being exchanged rather than paid directly, neither you nor your employees will pay National Insurance Contributions on the amount exchanged.
Our short film explains how salary exchange works and how it could potentially benefit you and your employees.
We can support salary exchange and tailor it to suit your needs in order to make your pension scheme as cost-effective and attractive as possible. Our employer guide explains everything you need to know about salary exchange and the key things to consider when implementing an agreement with your employees.
Work out how salary exchange could potentially benefit you and your employees. You can calculate an estimate of the potential savings based on the increased National Insurance Contributions rates for the 2022/23 tax year.
