STATUS CHANGE | LEARNING & EDUCATION
Full-time
to Part-time Status Change Policy
A full-time staff member covered by the Tax-Deferred Retirement
Plan (TDR) who changes status to a part-time staff position will
no longer be covered by the TDR, but will instead become eligible
for the Retirement Allowance Plan (RAP)*.
This
change would take place as of the first of the month following
your status change (please note that if you have less than 1 year
of service when you change status, the effective date of your
participation in the RAP will be the first of the month following
your attainment of 1 year of service). You should keep in mind
that being eligible for the RAP plan doesn't mean that you will
automatically accrue benefits under that plan. Under the provisions
of the RAP plan, you must work at least 1000 hours per year for
5 years before becoming vested in the plan, and you receive benefit
credit only for those years in which you have worked at least
1000 hours.
If
you have questions about this policy, please contact the Retirement
Call Center at 1-877-PENN-RET (1-877-736-6738).
*Note:
This policy does not apply to faculty members.
