How to join

Normally you will join the plan automatically at your joining date, but you can choose to opt out if you want to. Government legislation requires us to ‘re-enrol’ you every 3 years; you can of course opt out again.

If you would like to opt into the Investor Plan please do this through the My Benefits website. If you are unable to access the My Benefits website please contact HR Direct.

How it works

Joining - Most employees automatically join when joining Siemens.
Contributing - You pay in contributions. Siemens also pays into your account.
Accessing - You can access your savings from age 55. The normal retirement age is 65.

Benefits of joining

Siemens will make a monthly contribution to your personal pension fund.
The more you contribute, the more you will get from Siemens (up to 10% of pensionable salary).
You save tax and national insurance on your contributions paid through My Benefits.
Siemens covers the administrative costs of running the Plan.
