This article presents findings on the number of occupational pension schemes in 2006, their membership and contributions to schemes by employers and employees. It is based on the Occupational Pension Schemes Annual Report (2006 edition). The findings distinguish between public and private sector schemes and include breakdowns by scheme status (open, closed, frozen or winding up), by benefit structure (defined benefit and defined contribution) and by size band. The 2006 results are compared with the findings of earlier occupational pension scheme surveys carried out by the Government Actuary's Department.
