Description

A defined benefit pension plan is a type of pension plan in which an employer or sponsor promises a specified pension payment, lump-sum (or combination thereof) on retirement that is predetermined by a formula based on the employee's earnings history, tenure of service and age, rather than depending directly on individual investment returns. Traditionally, many governmental and public entities, as well as a large number of corporations, provided defined benefit plans, sometimes as a means of compensating workers in lieu of increased pay. A defined benefit plan is "defined" in the sense that the benefit formula is defined and known in advance. Conversely, for a "defined contribution retirement saving plan", the formula for computing the employer's and employee's contributions is defined and known in advance, but the benefit to be paid out is not known in advance.

FAQ

Effective July 1, 2004, PERA employers contribute 1.02% of salary to the Health Care Trust Fund. Under Senate Bill (SB) 18-200, member and employer contributions will automatically adjust beginning July 1, 2020, to ensure that PERA is able to pay off its unfunded liability.

All DPS employees and most of Colorado's other public employees contribute to the Colorado PERA retirement program rather than social security. The PERA retirement plan offers a sound foundation for retirement income, but there is more that you can do to ensure your desired retirement lifestyle.

PERA is a 401(a) defined benefit retirement plan, sometimes called a pension plan. For most members, PERA serves as a substitute for Social Security. PERA provides benefits to you when you retire or are disabled, or to your survivors after your death.

A defined-benefit plan guarantees a specific benefit or payout upon retirement. The employer may opt for a fixed benefit or one calculated according to a formula that factors in years of service, age, and average salary.

Definition. PERA. Public Employees Retirement Association. PERA. Public Employment Relations Act (various states)

The AED is an additional amount contributed by PERA employers with gradual increases. The SAED is also an amount contributed by employers and is, to the extent permitted by law, to be funded by moneys otherwise available for employee wage increases.

Benefits are pre-funded, which means while a member is working, he or she is required to contribute a fixed percentage of their salary to the retirement trust funds. Employers also contribute a percentage of pay to the trust fund. The trust funds are then invested by PERA under the direction of the Board of Trustees.

Most PERA plan administrators have a termination form that you can download online. You must complete and submit the termination form before you can cash out your account. Your signature must be notarized by a state notary, or your form will be rejected.

PERA has two types of retirement plans: A defined benefit (also called a pension) plan where PERA invests funds on your behalf and then provides a lifetime monthly benefit in retirement, and a defined contribution plan where you choose your investments and then draw from your account balance in retirement.

Under the DPS Plan, the Company makes a contribution on behalf of each eligible participant for each year. Participants may also defer up to 15 percent of their eligible compensation on a pre-tax or after-tax basis into the plan, subject to plan and tax-qualification limits.
