Email templates
You can copy and paste the wording from the email templates below to encourage your employees to make additional pension contributions or to review their regular contributions. The value of your employees' investments could go down as well as up and they could get back less than they originally paid in.
Our email template wording has been approved by Royal London for use in its current format, please only alter highlighted or bracketed wording.
Royal London is not responsible for any further changes you make to the content.

Case studies
If employees increase their regular pension contributions, even by small incremental amounts, it could make a big difference to their pension savings at retirement. These case studies show the difference a small annual increase could make.
Choose a case study with a salary close to the amount your employee earns. And use alongside the 'Review regular contributions' email template above to demonstrate the impact increasing their pension contributions could have over a long period of time.
Take care to choose the right case study - some are for employees who pay their pension contributions using salary exchange and some are for those who get tax relief at source. (This means their contributions are taken after their wages are taxed.)
Learn more about how to make one-off contributions to your employees pension plans on our Making contributions Help Centre page.
