Employees will have no interaction with the actual collection process, it will just be another 'tax' Revenue collects along with IT, PRSI Employee, PRSI Employer and LPT. But with Revenue doing the collection they will have the reassurance that if their employer fails to pay actions will be swiftly taken.
 
Still looks terrible.
Taxes are involuntary. Pension contributions are the opposite.
Having Revenue involved will impress upon employers that they are better off minimising employer contributions or or avoiding them altogether.
