DWP has published a State Pension Toolkit, with guidance and promotional material to help organisations and employers communicate the changes to the State Pension being introduced in April 2016.
From April 2016 the current State Pension will be replaced by the new simpler
system. The new State Pension is designed to give people greater clarity about what
they will get from the State in retirement and will affect everyone who reaches State
Pension age on or after 6 April 2016.
The toolkit brings together simple and downloadable information across all of the
State Pension changes including:
- seven fact sheets
- two videos
- six infographics and photo case studies
- an all-in-one ‘State Pension explained’ guide
- guidance for employers and trustees on the end of contracting-out
We are encouraging organisations such as trade bodies, charities, private-sector companies and the media to download and use this information to help explain the changes to their customers or employees.
Topics covered in the toolkit include: the current State Pension, the new State Pension and how it will be calculated, State Pension Top Up, deferring your State Pension, State Pension for the self-employed, contracting-out, and National Insurance.
The toolkit will be regularly updated with new products.
