AnnotationMicro-employers are employers (including both business and not for profit organisations) who employ one or more non-family member but fewer than five members of staff. This research was designed to contribute to the process of informing policies for encouraging both micro-employers and their staff to engage with pensions and make informed choices about saving for retirement. The research is based on eight group discussions in three different business sectors (manufacturing/agriculture, retail/wholesale and services) across four locations (Edinburgh, Wakefield, North London and Hereford). The report considers: micro-employers' views on saving for their own retirement; attitudes towards employees' pensions; what improvements to pensions engagement that could be achieved through workplace information; and other options for improving pensions saving.
