Practicality of Saving for Low Earners
Published on Wednesday 29 October 2025, The Pensions Policy Institute (PPI) launched the second report in this series which explores what pension incomes, and retirement needs, different low earner profiles are projected to have under current policy.
This report, released as the Pensions Commission examines pension adequacy, looks at how the life courses of low earners could interact with workplace savings.
The From Payslip to Pension: Life Course Impacts on Retirement Saving Among Low Earners series has been funded by a grant from The Nuffield Foundation. The project will run until summer 2026 and consist of five individual outputs.
