FORTHCOMING CHANGE:

On 26 November 2025, within Budget 2025, it was confirmed that, from April 2029, only the first £2,000 each year of pension savings made under a salary sacrifice arrangement will escape National Insurance contributions (NICs). Any amount an employee sacrifices above £2,000 per annum will attract both employer and employee NICs, meaning the surplus over £2,000 will, for NICs, be handled in the same manner as other staff workplace pension contributions.
