From August 2026, HMRC will be contacting around 1 million eligible individuals directly about the low earner’s pension payment, previously referred to as the low earner’s anomaly. This payment makes sure low earners achieve similar outcomes regardless of the type of workplace pension scheme they are in.
Employers do not need to take any action, however please make employees aware HMRC may contact them. For more information please visit June 2026 issue of the employer bulletin – GOV.UK
