Employers in the Fund

There are three types of employing authority within the LGPS:

  • Scheduled Bodies: Local Authorities and similar bodies whose staff are automatically entitled to be members of the fund.

  • Designating Bodies: City, town and parish councils. They have the power to decide if their employees can join the LGPS and pass a resolution accordingly.

  • Admission Bodies: Other organisations that participate in the fund under an admission agreement between the fund and the relevant organisation. Admitted bodies include voluntary, charitable and similar bodies or private contractors undertaking a local authority function following outsourcing to the private sector.
