The amount of pension tax relief you get on your pension contributions depends on the top rate of income tax you pay.
The way tax relief is claimed depends on the type of pension you are saving into, and it’s worth checking with your scheme to see what method it uses..
Anyone earning less than £12,500 should be using the relief at source method whereas higher earners are better off using the net pay arrangement. You can only choose one method per employer though, so lower-paid employees will be losing out if its a Net Pay Arrangement.
Below is a helpful guide explaining the different methods and what it could mean for you and your employees.
