If I retire from COA ERS, can I get a job at the City?

Retirees who have not attained age 55 at retirement cannot have an oral or written agreement to return to work and must wait 90 days from their retirement date before returning to work for the City. Retirees aged 54 or younger who return to work within 90 days of their retirement date will have their pension payments suspended until they terminate employment.

If a retiree returns to work for the City as a regular full time employee, pension payments will be suspended until the employee terminates employment.

A retiree who returns to work for the City as a non regular full time employee can work up to 1,508 hours in a 52-week period and receive their monthly pension payment. If a retiree works or is paid for hours which exceed 1,508, their pension payments are suspended until they terminate employment.
