What’s in it

This bill concerns reemployment rights of a special service member under the Iowa public employees’ retirement system (IPERS) receiving a disability retirement allowance. Under current law, if a special service member receiving a disability retirement allowance under IPERS is returned to any covered employment under IPERS, the member’s disability retirement allowance shall cease. The bill provides that if the member returns to covered employment that is not special service employment, the member’s disability retirement allowance shall not cease. Current provisions reducing a member’s disability retirement allowance based on earnings of the member in a gainful occupation are made applicable to a return to covered employment that is not special service employment under IPERS.
