HBSI Pension Fund
Summary of Benefits
The summary of benefits offered by the Hairdressing, Beauty and Skincare Industry Pension Fund which celebrated its 10th anniversary last month, has been updated and can be accessed HERE.
Emergency File Checklist
The Fund Administrators have also issued a communique to clients highlighting that in the unfortunate death of a loved one, many difficulties may present themselves if the deceased has not left clear instructions or if proper records were not kept.
They have prepared and circulated an “Emergency File Checklist” that can be distributed to employees to encourage them to keep a file with all the necessary documents that will hopefully assist those left behind one day.

Important Reminders

All Employers or Owners have a duty to ensure that an establishment has been registered with the Council. A separate registration must be completed in respect of each establishment operated by the Employer or Owner. Furthermore, Employers and Owners must ensure that all Employees are registered with the Council.
The registration of establishments and employees with the Council is not optional, it is a legal requirement.
