If you are thinking about joining the Kent Pension Fund as an employer:
- Read the guidance notes
- Read the Pensions and Lifetime Savings Association (PLSA) guide for employers
- Read the employer responsibilities - information about your role and responsibilities.
It is recommended that you receive your own legal advice in addition to reading the above guidance.
