As an Admitted Body or employer within Civil Service Pensions, has an important role to play to ensure the efficient and accurate administration of pension benefits. The Admission Agreement outlines what the Admitted Body must do to achieve this.
The Admitted Body will be required to work with the Scheme Administrator (MyCSP) on the following key activities during the on-boarding process.
Payroll implementation and knowledge transfer
The Admitted Body will need to work with the Contracting Authority to understand the specific contractual terms and conditions of the transferring employee. They will also be required to set-up their HR and payroll systems in order to pay employees correctly.
Payroll data
It is important that, alongside salary information, the Admitted Body captures the information they will need to make the right pension deductions, at the right time.
Historic member information
When employees move between employers covered by Civil Service Pensions, their employment history should move with them. As the responsibility for holding and maintaining this information lies with the member’s current employer, the Admitted Body may be asked to validate and confirm pension records held on the pension administration system. The Admitted Body should make sure that full personal data and employment details are obtained for each employee as part of the handover process for employees moving between employers.
