Employer deducting salary protection premium, but not paying it over
- Thread starter desparate
- Start date
Yes we know this …..but it’s playing with peoples lives.
Yes….we have been watching this
The Pensions Act requires an employer to pay over pension deduction within 21 days of the end of the month the money was deducted.
Pensions (Amendment) Act, 2002, Section 41
The electronic Irish Statute Book (eISB) comprises the Acts of the Oireachtas (Parliament), Statutory Instruments, Legislation Directory, Constitution and a limited number of pre-1922 Acts.

You need to get onto the WRC to send an inspector immediately. They are deducting monies from your salary for legitimate reasons but not paying those bodies. This will impact you and not your company. If they cannot afford to pay staff they need to start laying them off. Especially the CFO and the CEO who are making these financial decision. If the company is not a going concern it needs to be wound up, paying staff and creditors.
PIs the HSE the only source of income?
And if the company is a charity, then get onto the charity regulator about monies not being accounted for and the pensions regulator about non payment of pensions money.
And have you all as a group spoken to senior management?

I would say keep an eye out but don’t jump yet.
Bear in mind it’s likely there’ll be compulsory or voluntary redundancies and you won’t get a payout if you’ve just resigned.
Yes the HSe is main source, it is a charity. I’m 30yrs in my job and there are a lot of long term staff. Spoke before Xmas to senior management but nothing since ….no communication is the most difficult …honesty will always win respect even if we don’t like the message.
Yes 30yrs here no intention of job hunting
If you are close to retirement, its worth holding out.
But if you have dependents, then in my view the writings on the wall & I'd make sure to have an escape plan.
No nowhere near retirement and have dependents
Not sure what the gender symbol is intended to mean.No nowhere near retirement and have dependents
Don't expect your "30 years" to mean anything if the roof caves in.
If you have people depending on your income for their home / food / clothing, its time to take the blinkers off.
That's a bit harsh...the poster is being proactive in terms of monitoring what's happening. Please take that on board before you say they have blinkers on.
Not sure what gender symbol is either. Not wearing blinkers very aware.
Maybe a knee jerk reaction is not the most prudent thing to do? Easy to be rash and impulsive on a chat forum. Real life decisions are/should be, far more complex
You're kidding surely
Pensions not paid, insurance premiums not paid, unpaid bills, wages delayed, very good chance tax & PRSI not paid.
And you think they are all good reasons to sit & wait it out?
I don't see any signs of employees being 'proactive'.
Spoke to "senior management" 3 months ago & nothing since; the OP has "no intention of job hunting".

You or I only know so much. We know nothing of the OP's situation (mortgage, outgoings etc.) or their prospects of getting similar work or work that pays the same.
Maybe you are spot on with your posts but people will make decisions at their own pace. They are still getting paid so things are (presently) not a total disaster.
What is shocking to me is a government funded entity can jeopardise the livelihoods of so many 3rd parties just because its a total basket case for over spends. Something should be done to address the over spends, much of which is not at the coal face, rather in ineffective administration.
