3. The application is filed before you reach age 60 and
while you are actually in the service upon which your
membership is based. In the event of discontinuance
from service, voluntarily or involuntarily, application
may be made within two years of the discontinuance
from service.
If the application is approved, you are entitled to receive
a lifetime pension equal to 3/4 of your final average salary.
As noted, the pension may be reduced in order to provide for
possible income for a beneficiary.
This pension is in addition to the annuity provided by
your own contributions, if any. The pension will, however,
be reduced by the amount of any Workmen's Compensation
payments you are entitled to or may become entitled to
receive. If Workmen's Compensation benefits may be pay-
able, a member must apply for them.
Ordinary Disability
If you have at least ten years of service credit and become
permanently disabled, you may be eligible for an ordinary
disability retirement allowance. An application for the
benefit must be submitted while you are actually in the
service on which your membership is based. In brief, you
must be on your employer's payroll and receiving salary.
The ordinary disability retirement allowance consists of a
pension or a combined pension and annuity, as follows:
For those who entered government employment before
attaining age 40; the benefit is intended to equal 1/60th
of final average salary for each year of credited service.
However, various factors (withdrawn contributions and
loans, among others) may reduce the benefit. The
minimum allowance, again with certain exceptions, is
one-third of final average salary.
For those who entered government employment after age
40 and could not have completed 20 years of service
before attaining age 60: the benefit is intended to equal
1/60th of final average salary for each year the employee
could have worked before attaining age 60. Again, such
things as withdrawn contributions, loans and other factors
may reduce the benefit payable.
IV. DEATH BENEFITS
Death benefits are exclusive of any contributions you
may have rnade to the System. Your accumulated contribu-
tion —including the unpaid balance of a loan in effect for
more than 30 days --are payable to your beneficiary in
addition to the death benefit.
The Accidental Death Benefit
Every member of the System is covered for accidental
death benefits from the first day of membership. There is no
minimum service requirement for eligibility.
If during the performance of duty a member dies as the
direct result of an accident which is not due to willful
negligence, an annual pension of one-half of final average
salary is payable:
To the widow for the remainder of her life or until she
remarries.
Where there is no widow or the widow remarries, to
minor children until the last child reaches age 18.
Where there is no widow, child or dependent parent, then
the applicable ordinary death benefit would be paid to the
designated beneficiary or estate.
The pension is subject to reduction by any Workmen's
Compensation paid or payable because of death.
If the total payments made as accidental death benefit
pension and Workmen's Compensation do not at least equal
what would have been paid as an ordinary death benefit, the
difference will be paid to a designated beneficiary or the
estate.
The Ordinary Death Benefit
If you should die while still in service but not as a result
of an accident in the performance of duty, an ordinary death
benefit may be paid to your beneficiary or beneficiaries, in
addition to the refund of any contributions --including
interest --that may have been made.
Regular Ordinary Death Benefit
A one year service requirement must be met before you
are eligible for an ordinary death benefit. The death benefit is
1/12th of your last year's earnings multiplied by the number
of years of credited service up to 36 years. The maximum
amount payable is three years' salary.
Guaranteed Ordinary Death Benefit
The benefit is payable on behalf of any State employee
with continuous State service on and after March 31, 1969
whose death occurs prior to July 1, 1974.
It is also payable on behalf of a member whose death
occurs prior to July 1,1974 who, on March 31, 1973, was in
the employ of the State or a participating employer who has
elected this benefit, subject to the following additional
conditions:
That the deceased was under age 60 when he/she began
that employment.
That the deceased was on the payroll and received salary
from such employer- for at least 90 consecutive days
immediately preceding death.
That the deceased was on the employer's payroll and
receiving salary on March 31, 1973. (Date specified in the
law at the time of publication and subject to extension by
the Legislature.)
The guaranteed ordinary death benefit is three times the
last year's salary, rounded to the next higher multiple of
$1,000, with a maximum of $20,000. This benefit would be
payable if it exceeds the regular ordinary death benefit.
The last year's salary is the total of earnings during the 12
month period immediately preceding death. If the employee
has less than 12 months service at the time of death, the
amount is the total that would have been earned if the
deceased had been employed for the full 12 month period.
Alternative Death Benefit
If you die while in service —but after having become
eligible to retire —your death benefit may be substantially
increased. If you are eligible for this alternative, an initial
value is calculated generally under the provisions of the
1/60th non-contributory retirement plan. Frequently, this is
a larger death benefit than would otherwise be payable. In
such cases, this initial value amount will be paid.
Payment of Benefits
These benefits, up to $50,000, are paid in the form of
group life insurance and, as such, are exempt under present
law from Federal Income Tax. The death benefit may be
payable as a lump sum or, if the beneficiary wishes, as an
annuity (except when payable under the Guaranteed Ordi-
nary Death Benefit provision).
NOTE: Certain classes of public employees are covered by
particular plans not described in this booklet. These
classes include:
Uniformed personnel — NYS Dept. of Correction
Legislative and Executive employees
NYS Sheriffs and Deputy Sheriffs
(in electing counties)
Policemen and firemen are covered by a separate retire-
ment system.

COMPTROLLER'S MESSAGE
The primary purpose of your Retirement System is to
provide you with a secure retirement income after your years
of service as a public employee. To do this, funds are built up
systematically during your working years. Then, during
retirement, your benefits are paid from these funds.
Your retirement system also provides benefits for eligible
members in the event of death or disability. These benefits
can play a major role in helping to preserve your or your
family's economic stability.
The purpose of our series of leaflets is to describe --very
briefly and very generally —the plans and benefits of the
retirement system so that you may understand them. But a
word of caution is in order. The Retirement Law, however
voluminous or complex it may seem, is still the law. These
leaflets present some of the provisions of the law, but they
are not a substitute for the law.
We hope this leaflet will make you more familiar with
your retirement system. if you have questions about the
system or what it means to you, don't hesitate to write or
visit our office in Albany. You may also contact any of our
information representatives at various consultation centers
listed in this leaflet.
Sincerely,
SOME IMPORTANT TERMS
This booklet avoids technical words wherever possible.
The following tuinu, hUWCVCI, dIC esselltld; to ail understand-
ing of the System and its plans.
Member Service
Credited service as an employee of the State of New York
or with any of the political sub -divisions or public agencies of
the State of New York after they elected to participate in
this Retirement System.
Prior Service
Service with the State prior to 1921 or with a participat-
ing employer before that employer provided for membership
in the System.
Total Service
All member service for which a member is credited, all
credited prior service and all credited military service.
(Information about crediting military service is available from
the System.)
Final Average Salary
The average annual salary earned during any three
consecutive years of member service when earnings were
highest; usually the last three years.
Pension
The annual allowance for life, payable monthly, derived
wholly from employer contributions. The pension amount is
related directly to final average salary and total service, in
accordance with the terms of the plan the member is covered
by when he retires.
Annuity
The annual allowance for life, payable monthly, derived
from the member's accumulated contributions, if any,
including interest earnings.
Retirement Allowance
eas pension plus the annuity, if any, and the penal sum,
increased -take -home -pay, if any. This is an annual sum,
payable in monthly installments to the retiree for his
lifetime. The sum may, of course, be reduced in order to
ARTHUR LEVITT provide for payment to a beneficiary.
I. SERVICE RETIREMENT BENEFITS
THE NON-CONTRIBUTORY RETIREMENT PLAN WITH
GUARANTEED RETIREMENT BENEFITS
(Sections 75-d, 75-e)
(Sometimes called the Improved 1/60 Plan)*
You are eligible to retire at age 55.
Members are not required to contribute.
This plan provides a guaranteed service retirement allow-
ance consisting of:
A pension of 1/60th of final average salary for each year
of credited service after March 31, 1960.
Members with service earned before March 31, 1960 will
also receive an allowance equal to 1/60th of final average
salary for each year of credited service between April 1, 1938
and March 31, 1960. This will consist of an annuity provided
by required contributions plus pension. Excess contributions,
if any, will provide additional annuity.
For service before April 1, 1938, there is pension of
1/120 of final average salary for each year of member service,
or 1 /60 for each year of any prior service.
*You may be required to complete two years of service
before you can retire with the benefits provided by this plan
if you have changed employers recently.
II. VESTING AND VESTED BENEFITS
In retirement terms, vesting means ownership. If a benefit
is vested, you own it. This is important because you may stop
working for a public employer before you are eligible to
retire. Even though you leave government cn,ployment you
may still receive a benefit (related to your years of
government employment) at retirement age if you have a
vested right to the benefit.
Eligibility
A member with ten or more years of service credit,
including at least five years as a member of the Retirement
System automatically has vested rights. Of course, a member
who discontinues his government employment before "retire-
ment age" and without the required ten years of service
would not be eligible for a vested retirement allowance.
Loss of Vested Rights
If you were a member of the Retirement System, before
April 1, 1960 and withdrew all your contributions, your
membership is terminated and you forfeit your right to a
retirement allowance. However, the withdrawal of excess
contributions, made after April 1, 1960, does not affect your
vested status.
Retirement Age for a Vested Member
This is the age at which you can begin your vested
retirement allowance. If you were participating in a retire-
ment plan other than the age 60 plan for at least five years
before the date you discontinued service, vested retirement
age is 55.
The Vested Retirement Allowance
Generally, the allowance is determined by the benefits of
the retirement plan you were covered by in your last
government employment.
The retirement allowance is payable for your lifetime and
may be modified to provide for possible payments to your
beneficiary.
Applying for a Vested Retirement Allowance
A retirement application must be completed and sub-
mitted. If you wish to begin receiving benefits at the earliest
possible time, the application should be submitted before the
first of the month following your reaching age 55. Otherwise,
your retirement will be effective as of the date your
application is received by the System.
If You Should Die
If you have vested rights and discontinue service but die
before applying for a retirement allowance, there is usually
no death benefit payable. However, a death benefit may be
payable if you should die within one year of your termina-
tion of service and were not otherwise gainfully employed.
Any contributions taken from your salary, plus interest,
will be refunded to your beneficiary.
III. DISABILITY BENEFITS
Sometimes a career ends prematurely because a member
becomes disabled. If you become unable to do your job for
physical or mental reasons, you may be eligible for disability
retirement.
If you meet the legal requirements mentioned later on,
necessary documentation is gathered and you will be referred
to a physician for examination at the System's expense. Then
a medical board, appointed by the Comptroller, makes a
detailed review of all materials and a determination is made.
If your application is approved, you will begin receiving
monthly payments. Optional methods of payment —a reduced
allowance providing for payment to a beneficiary —that are
available to service retirees are available to disability retirees.
Filing An Application
You, your department head or anyone authorized by you
may file an application for benefits. Applications are avail-
able from the Retirement System. You may file for service
retirement, accidental disability and ordinary disability bene-
fits simultaneously. We will be pleased, when an application
is requested, to provide counsel about multiple filings.
Accidental Disability
There is no minimum service requirement for this benefit.
As a member of the Retirement System, you may receive an
accidental disability retirement allowance if you meet the
following conditions:
1. You become physically or mentally unable to perform
your job as the direct result of an accident, not due to
willful negligence on your part, which occurred while
you were performing your duties.
2. Written notice of the accident is filed with the
Comptroller within 30 days after the accident. Timely
notice given to the Workmen's Compensation Board
meets this requirement, but the Retirement System
will need an application before it can act.
