Retirement Seminar Held at Smithfield
May 22, 2019 12:00 AM
On May 17, SCI Smithfield hosted a Retirement Benefits seminar as part of their "Lunch n Learn" training series. State Employee Retirement System representatives Jennifer Perry and Bryan Christensen gave an overview of the state's retirement benefits to interested Smithfield employees. Sessions were broken down into two groups: employees hired before or after Jan. 1, 2019.
Some of the items covered in the training were explanations of the retirement formula and years of service, purchasing of service, retirement options, and retirement health benefits. Suggestions were also made in the timing of meetings with SERS representatives prior to retirement. Several Smithfield employees had positive comments on the usefulness of the training.
