Seasonal workers employed for fewer than three months

HMRC has reminded businesses that employ seasonal, temporary staff that, as long as they know their staff will be working for them for fewer than three months, they can postpone the legal duty to assess staff for three months. During this period, employers will not need to put staff into a pension unless they ask to be put into one.

The Pensions Regulator has an online tool for employers with seasonal and temporary workers.
