AI Summary

  • Amends Section 61 of the Public School Employees Retirement Act of 1979 to clarify language regarding retirants who return to employment with a reporting unit.

  • Changes "take place" to "occur" and "shall not be" to "is not" for grammatical clarity in describing when retirants are ineligible for new final average compensation or additional service credit.

  • Requires universities employing retired teachers or administrators in teaching or research capacities to report that employment to the retirement system by July 1 of each year, including the retirant's name, employment capacity, and total annual compensation.

  • Specifies that for retirants retiring on or after July 1, 2010, forfeiture of retirement allowance and health care benefits occurs when earnings exceed 1/3 of final average compensation while employed by a reporting unit or as an independent contractor.

  • Clarifies that "core services" performed at a reporting unit do not include services provided by substitute teachers, exempting substitute teaching positions from benefit forfeiture requirements.
