Employers & Partners
Employers & Partners
OCERS’ participating employers have an integral role in securing their employees’ retirement benefits. Participating employers provide OCERS the employee demographic and payroll data that allows OCERS to calculate retirement benefits and run the retirement system. The employers also transmit the retirement contributions that OCERS invests in order to pay out retirement benefits.
Any OCERS payee who wishes to become reemployed with an OCERS employer, without reinstatement to OCERS membership, must have a minimum of 180 day break in service and has the 960 per fiscal year hours limitation.
