All full-time employees are enrolled in CalPERS—the California Public Employees’ Retirement System, the nation’s largest public pension fund. Both the County and employee contribute to their retirement plan through monthly payments and payroll deductions, building a reliable and valuable source of income for your retirement years.
CalPERS retirement plans are coordinated with Social Security (note - not all Safety members' benefits are coordinated with Social Security). To inquire on specific retirement formulas, please reference individual bargaining unit MOUs.
