Working After Retirement

Certain types of work are considered “disqualifying” once you’ve retired and have begun receiving your pension:

• If you have not reached age 65, and return to work for a participating employer, your monthly pension payments will be suspended.
• If you are age 65 or older, and return to work for a participating employer for more than 40 hours per month, your payments will be suspended.
• If you return to work for a non-participating employer, you may work as many hours as you want without your payments being suspended.

You will need to notify the SEIU Benefit Funds  in writing when your re-employment ends. Your pension benefit may need to be recalculated.

Cómo volver a calcular sus beneficios luego de una suspensión

Al reanudar los pagos de su pensión, su nuevo beneficio incluirá lo siguiente:

• El monto del pago de su pensión anterior, incluidos los aumentos a jubilados que entraron en vigencia antes de que se suspendiera su pensión.
• Si el pago de su pensión anterior se calculó con una reducción por jubilación anticipada, cada mes de suspensión anulará un mes de reducción por jubilación anticipada.
• Any contributions made to the Affiliates’ Pension Fund on your behalf since your pension was last calculated will increase your benefit.
