Description

Existing law provides for the Deferred Retirement Option Plan (DROP), which contractually allows a member of the Employees' Retirement System (ERS) or the Teachers' Retirement System (TRS) to continue employment with his or her employer for a specific period of time, while deferring a portion of his or her retirement allowance until the end of the participation period, at which time the member withdraws from his or her service.

Existing law provides that participation in DROP is prohibited after March 24, 2011.

This bill would reopen participation in the DROP program and would further provide options for Tier I and Tier II members to participate in DROP.
