Redwood Experience for Pension Scheme Enrolment for Self-Service Users

The new redwood pages for employee self-service pensions enrollment provide an enhanced user experience to employees while enabling them to do several tasks such as:

  • Enroll into an eligible pension scheme.
  • Make changes to their contributions depending on the scheme that is set up for either flat amount or a percentage.
  • Leave a pension scheme if they are already enrolled into one. In doing this, they can elect to not be in a pension scheme at all. Or, enroll into a different scheme that they are eligible to enroll.

The pension schemes need to be mutually exclusive for selection to ensure that the employee can only be enrolled in one scheme at any point in time. If they need to enroll into another scheme, their previous scheme can't be active and the employee needs to first unenroll from that scheme.

The new pages offer improved visual appeal, fewer clicks, and better performance for your employees.
