Auto-enrolment earnings trigger and qualified earnings band remain unchanged
United Kingdom | Publication | February 2024
In a review of auto-enrolment published on February 6, 2024, the Government has confirmed that the auto-enrolment earnings trigger and qualified earnings band will remain frozen for the 2024/25 tax year.
This means the parameters are as follows:
- The earnings trigger remains at £10,000 p.a.
- The lower limit of the qualifying earnings band remains at £6,240 p.a.
- The upper limit of the qualifying earnings band remains at £50,270 p.a.
Under the Pensions (Extension of Automatic Enrolment) Act 2023 there exists a power to remove the lower earnings limit under secondary legislation. The DWP intends to consult on the implementation of these changes but no firm date is given in the review.

This growth has been particularly pronounced in Europe and the US but there has also been significant activity in Asia.
