SUMMARY:How to Prepare for Pension Auto-Enrolment
DESCRIPTION:Join us to learn about how to prepare for pension auto-enrolment and why setting up your own company pension could be the smarter move! \nIreland’s new Auto-Enrolment Pension Scheme is due to roll out soon — and it will have a major impact on employers and employees alike. \nWhile it’s designed to get more people saving for retirement\, many business owners don’t realise they have better options. By setting up your own company pension scheme\, you can opt out of auto-enrolment\, retain flexibility\, and gain significant tax advantages — all while keeping control of costs and benefits. \nJoin us for an informal information session with insurance expert John Cuffe (Cuffe and Company (Insurance) Ltd.) who will explain: \n\n🔍 What the Auto-Enrolment Scheme really means for your business.\n⚖️ The difference between auto-enrolment and private company pensions.\n💰 How setting up your own pension can save tax\, improve recruitment\, and avoid unnecessary complexity.\n🧾 How we can help you establish a compliant\, efficient\, and tax–exempt company pension structure.\n\nWhether you’re a small business owner\, company director\, or HR decision-maker\, this short session will help you understand your options\, before auto-enrolment becomes mandatory. \nBookings: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/how-to-prepare-for-pension-auto-enrolment-tickets-1963910695758?aff=oddtdtcreator
