Currently Staffology assesses employees for pension auto enrolment even when they are being terminated in the current pay period.
This has resulted in employees being enrolled into the pension scheme and subsequently opting out, but as they are not included in the following months payroll and Staffology does not allow pension refunds to be processed via a payment after leaving it requires a roll back of the previous payrun to be performed.
My understanding is that employees do not have to be assessed for pension auto enrolment if they are currently in their notice period, which would be the case if they are being terminated in the same payrun as being assessed for auto enrolment.
