Add the pensionable amount shown on the chart above to your final average compensation (Retirement Calculator) or gross monthly salary (Transfer Calculator or ARC Calculator).

Please contact the Employee Benefits Hotline at (213) 388-9982 to verify your cafeteria plan and the pensionable portion as of 12/31/94. The amount of the County contribution paid to employees changes periodically. The portion that is pensionable varies according to your cafeteria plan, your hire date, and your retirement plan (Megaflex only).     

*Special rules may apply if your final compensation period included any time prior to January 1, 1991.
