Nearly a third (31%) of people earning between £10,000 and £20,000 per year have reported a decline in their finances during the coronavirus pandemic, according to research from a pensions provider.
Scottish Widows is calling for reforms to entitle those on low incomes to continue receiving workplace pension contributions from their employer – even if they are unable to make employee contributions themselves during periods of financial hardship.
