  • Faqs About Retirement Plans and ERISA
    FAQs about Retirement Plans and ERISA U.S. Department of Labor Employee Benefits Security Administration What is ERISA? The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, or ERISA, protects the assets of millions of Americans so that funds placed in retirement plans during their working lives will be there when they retire. ERISA is a federal law that sets minimum standards for retirement plans in private industry. For example, if your employer maintains a retirement plan, ERISA specifies when you must be allowed to become a participant, how long you have to work before you have a non-forfeitable interest in your benefit, how long you can be away from your job before it might affect your benefit, and whether your spouse has a right to part of your benefit in the event of your death. Most of the provisions of ERISA are effective for plan years beginning on or after January 1, 1975. ERISA does not require any employer to establish a retirement plan. It only requires that those who establish plans must meet certain minimum standards. The law generally does not specify how much money a participant must be paid as a benefit. ERISA does the following: Requires plans to provide participants with information about the plan including important information about plan features and funding. The plan must furnish some information regularly and automatically. Some is available free of charge, some is not. Sets minimum standards for participation, vesting, benefit accrual and funding. The law defines how long a person may be required to work before becoming eligible to participate in a plan, to accumulate benefits, and to have a non-forfeitable right to those benefits.

  • Oregon Public Service Retirement Plan (OPSRP) Members Unless Membership Was Previously Established in PERS
    PERS-covered employees hired on or after August 29, 2003 are Oregon Public Service Retirement Plan (OPSRP) members unless membership was previously established in PERS. OPSRP has two components: the Pension Program and the Individual Account Program. What is the OPSRP Pension Program? The OPSRP Pension Program is funded by your employer and provides a lifetime pension. It is designed to provide approximately 45 percent of your final average salary at retirement (for a general service member with a 30-year career or a police and firefighter member with a 25-year career). Final average salary is generally the average of the highest three consecutive years (or less if you were employed for less than three years) or 1/3 of total salary in the last 36 months of employment. General service member benefit information for the OPSRP Pension Program Unless you are in a police or firefighter position, you are considered a general service member. When you retire, PERS will calculate your monthly benefit using the following formula: General service: 1.5 percent x years of retirement credit x final average salary. Normal retirement age for general service members is age 65, or age 58 with 30 years of retirement credit. General Service Benefit Calculation Example (you can estimate your benefit using any number of years and any final average salary) Final average salary: $45,000 Retirement credit: 30 years as an OPSRP member 30 (years) x 1.5 percent = 45 percent 45 percent x $3,750 (final average monthly salary) = $1,687.50 Single Life Option monthly benefit = $1,687.50 ($20,250 annual benefit) Police and firefighter (P&F) benefit information for the OPSRP Pension Program To be classified as a P&F member at retirement, you must have been employed continuously as a P&F member for at least five years immediately preceding your retirement.

  • Mentoring Program Protege Handbook
    Mentoring Program Protégé Handbook Center for Professional Excellence Mentoring Program Mission Statement The mission of the Center for Professional Excellence Mentoring Program is development of students through self-formation and early professional preparation, the hallmark of The Elmhurst Experience. Introduction Simply stated, mentoring is a helping relationship in which a more experienced person (the Mentor) assumes limited responsibility for assisting a less experienced person (the Protégé) in order to enhance the probability that the less experienced person will develop and grow professionally and personally. This relationship can focus on a particular career or profession as the Protégé is ready to consider these specifics. It always addresses the Protégé’s personal development to shed light on the question, “What sort of professional would I like to become?” In order to assist the Protégé in navigating the mentoring process, workshops have been developed. The design of the Protégé Workshop is to give Protégés an understanding of their role and responsibilities as a Protégé; become familiar with the Mentoring Program Policies and Procedures; understand and appreciate the importance of establishing the mentoring relationship; and discover how to become an active participant in their personal and professional development. Table of Contents I. Introduction II. Design and Goals of the Program III. The Protégé’s Role IV. Establishing the Mentoring Relationship V. Developing the Mentoring Relationship VI. What Mentors look for in a Protégé VII. Possible Mentoring Topics I. Introduction Research has shown that people can and have benefited from mentoring relationships. It is also known that mentoring relationships can be designed and structured to benefit particular groups of people.

  • Managing Payroll Encumbrances Product-Suite: IVEE - Payroll MANAGING PAYROLL ENCUMBRANCES
    IV-EX-4-A Managing Payroll Encumbrances Product-Suite: IVEE - Payroll MANAGING PAYROLL ENCUMBRANCES This class will explain the differences of Salary Encumbrances vs. Benefit Encumbrances and Actual Encumbrances vs. Pre-Encumbrances. We will go over how the system handles these calculations and how the accuracy of these figures can help with budgeting your largest expense. Salary Encumbrances vs Benefit Encumbrances There is a big difference from how the system computes Salary Encumbrances compared to Benefit Encumbrances. Salary Encumbrances are generated from Positions and Payroll Journals. Benefit Encumbrances are generated from Employee benefits calculated from computing the employee pay journals through the Compute process. Salary Encumbrances come from Employee Positions and Supplementals that have been generated with unposted pay journals. The unposted pay journals are what compute in the payroll encumbrance totals by account code. Salary Encumbrances are created automatically every time you create/modify an employee position. Salary Encumbrances do not need to be computed to be included in Payroll Encumbrance Totals. Human Resources/Payroll > Employees > Employee Positions & Pay – the “unposted” Pay Journals are considered the Salary Encumbrances Benefit Encumbrances come from the computed employee deduction journals. TIP The benefit encumbrances can and should be computed as often as possible to get accurate totals through the Employee Payroll Journal and/or the Compute Selected Periods action in Process Payroll. The following can contribute to Benefit Encumbrance totals changing: Employee Salary Change Employer deduction amounts or percentages changing New Employees and/or Terminated Employees Employee Position Funding Changes Payroll > Employees > Employee Journal – the “unposted” Deduction journals on the Match side are considered the Benefit Encumbrances.
