We currently process weekly and 4 weekly and during auto enrollment have to process cyclical reenrollment of pensions in line with the pay period.
Due to this employees who previously opted out are opted back in and have a sum taken immediately on auto re-enrollment rather than giving them time to decide if they wish to opt out.
This can make things difficult for employees who can't afford to put into pensions or have private pensions already, as they have money taken without first being given the choice.
The pension regulator have advised we should be able to process and then enroll the next day but due to the pension assesment feature our payroll won't allow us to do this.
Any support on how we can avoid this/ amendment to this feature would be greatly beneficial to our staff.
