State pension

A question about : State pension

Hi, might be a silly question.....is the workplace pension as well as or in stead of a state pension.

Will i still get a state pension even if I am paying into the work place pension?

thanks

Best answers:

• If you are paying NI contributions, you will be building up entitlement to a state pension.
  Any other pension you pay into will be on top of your SP.
• yes paying NI every week since I was 18.
  thanks for that.
