Pension Tax Relief
Save up to £500/yrWhat is it?
Contributions to your workplace pension receive tax relief at your marginal rate. If done via salary sacrifice, you also save on National Insurance. Even a 1% increase can be worth hundreds per year.
Who is eligible?
Available to all employees who pay income tax. Your employer must offer a workplace pension or salary sacrifice scheme.
How to claim
Speak to your employer about increasing your pension contribution percentage. Ask specifically about salary sacrifice if available.
