CONGRATULATIONS!

As a new Los Angeles County employee, you have an important decision to make about your retirement: Plan D or Plan E?

LACERA is a companion that accompanies you throughout your career. Our relationship with you is nurtured over time and extends throughout your retirement. Not even death ends the relationship; LACERA keeps the relationship alive through benefits paid to your eligible survivors and beneficiaries.

NEW MEMBER WORKSHOPS

Attend a New Member Workshop to discover the differences between the Retirement Plans and get answers to your retirement questions.

The New General Member Interactive Workshop is a convenient online tool, designed to explain the differences between the General Member Plans and guide you through the decision-making process.

RETIREMENT PLANS

  • Plan D — Contributory (General Members)
  • Plan E — Non-Contributory (General Members)
  • Safety Plan B — Contributory (Note: Safety Members are automatically enrolled in this plan)

Read about the different retirement plans in our Plan Book Section.

CONTRIBUTION RATES

Member contributions are based on your nearest age when becoming a member of LACERA. See the different contribution rates for General Members and Safety Members.

RETURNING MEMBER
