§2078. Reemployment of retirees
A. In the event any retiree of the system is employed by an employer covered by this system, the retiree and the employer shall immediately notify the system of the retiree's date of employment, the amount of salary paid, any changes in salary while reemployed, number of hours employed per week, estimated duration of employment, and date of termination of reemployment.
B.(1) Any retiree may be employed by an employer covered by this system without suspension of benefits provided the retiree has terminated employment for at least six consecutive months. Such retiree may be employed for no more than sixty days, or four hundred eighty hours, in a calendar year. Should the portion of the calendar year available for employment be less than twelve months, the period of employment without reduction in benefits shall be reduced on a pro rata basis.
(2) Should any retiree be employed in excess of the amount of time provided for in Paragraph (1) of this Subsection, his retirement benefit shall be reduced by an amount equal to the amount earned in excess of the limitation. The reduction in benefits shall begin with the next payroll after the system receives notification of such employment.
C. Should any retiree be employed by an employer covered by this system within six months of termination of employment, his retirement benefit shall be reduced by an amount equal to that earned during such employment. Such reduction shall begin with the next payroll after the system receives notification of such employment.
D. Should any retiree return to full-time permanent employment by an employer covered by this system at any time after termination of employment, his retirement benefit shall be suspended and he shall become an active contributing member of the system. Upon his subsequent retirement, he shall receive his original benefit plus a supplemental benefit based on his salary and service earned since his reemployment. No change shall be permitted in the member's original option; however, at the end of the period of reemployment, the member shall select any option authorized as to any supplemental benefit earned.
