Duravit UK Ltd – Case Study
Duravit
Overview
Duravit AG produces an extensive range of sanitary ware ceramics and bathroom furniture for an international market. The company operates 10 production plants worldwide and employs a workforce of more than 5,000 employees. Their UK operation (Duravit UK Ltd) is based in Milton Keynes.
Providing Employee Benefit Advice
Steve Cook has provided employee benefit advice for Duravit UK Ltd since 2009. When Angela Rodger joined the company she recommended using Lonsdale Benefit Consultants, as Steve had provided employee benefit advice for her previous company.
Stakeholder Pension Scheme
Steve recommended replacing the Duravit UK Ltd stakeholder pension scheme with a group personal pension scheme through Aegon, and he also set up income protection and group life cover schemes with BUPA.
Auto Enrolment
The company is currently working with Steve on their auto enrolment project. Steve presented to staff recently and has encouraged them to use contractual joining to potentially avoid having to assess staff for auto enrolment suitability. This should enable Duravit UK Ltd to achieve their staging date, and offers their staff the opportunity to join the group pension scheme.
Dedicated Pension Administrator
Duravit UK Ltd benefits from having a dedicated pension administrator in Lonsdale Benefit Consultant’s St Albans office, who administer our pension scheme and answers queries for individual scheme members.
