Overview

As an employer, your main responsibilities are to:

• communicate details of the LGPS to eligible staff
• apply the scheme regulations
• report information to us.

To make sure your employees get the best pensions service, we need you to give us the right information, in the required format, on time. This helps us to keep our members’ records up to date and make sure we pay them the correct pension. To help us achieve this:

We’ll give you:
• a contact and deputy to help with any queries you may have
• clear instructions on how to use the i-Connect portal to transfer data to us
• information on our key performance standards to help you know what we need and when.

In return:

We expect you to:
• give us contacts for our communications and queries, including one with overall responsibility
• give us monthly information using the i-Connect portal
• give us the information outlined under our performance standards on time
• make sure all information you give us is correct by having a suitable review process.

This page gives a summary of your responsibilities. You can find more information in our administration strategy. You can also watch our latest employer responsibilities webinar.
