§1762.  Reemployment of retirees

A.  Whenever a retired member receiving normal retirement benefits becomes reemployed by an employer such that his monthly earnings are equal to or less than the difference between his monthly average final compensation and his monthly retirement benefit, his retirement benefits shall continue and he shall not be a member of the system.

B.  Whenever a retired member receiving normal retirement benefits becomes reemployed by an employer such that his monthly earnings exceed the difference between his monthly average final compensation and his monthly retirement benefit, his retirement benefits shall be reduced by the amount his monthly earnings exceed the difference between his monthly average final compensation and his monthly retirement benefit for every month of such employment and he shall not be a member of the system.  

C.  The retired member and the employer shall immediately notify the board of the retiree's date of employment, the amount of his monthly salary, and any changes in salary, number of hours employed per week, estimated duration of employment, and date of termination of employment.

D.  For purposes of this Section, there shall be an annual cost-of-living adjustment to the average final compensation figure used to determine whether benefits are to be continued or reduced.  This cost-of-living adjustment shall be based upon and directly reflect the annual percentage increase or decrease in the Consumer Price Index for the preceding calendar year.
