  3. How soon can I opt out from a workplace pension scheme?  

Once you have been enrolled into a workplace pension scheme you can choose to leave (opt out) at any time.

If you opt out within a month of your employer adding you to the scheme, you'll get back any money you've already paid in.

You would not be able to get your payments refunded if you opt out later - the contributions will stay in your pension until you retire.
