dc.description.abstract | The population are living longer, and policymakers are redesigning their
pension system to tackle the increasing pension’s gap that has emerged
across all major economies. The Irish government is due to implement the
State Pension, by introducing a nation-wide automatic-enrolment savings
system proposed to commence in 2022, with the objective to increase the
pension’s coverage amongst workers from the private sector. The aim of
this research study was to discover how an automatic-enrolment system is
likely to affect the pension gap in Ireland. Secondary data was used to
present outcomes and experiences from two OECD countries that
implemented the auto-enrolment system in previous years to explore what
the expectations for Ireland are. In order to achieve the aim of this
dissertation, a qualitative research design was adopted with semi-structured
interviews and a Grounded Theory method. The findings suggest that
despite the auto-enrolment to be a good step, it would not solve the Irish
pension problem considering the low level of contribution it will impose; it
would not considerably impact the pension gap. | en |
