As the employer, you have certain responsibilities when enrolling and reporting retirement system members. You will want to keep the following points in mind:
You are responsible for making the initial determination of an employee's eligibility for membership. PSERS Plan Rules explain the membership rules that currently apply. Review these pages carefully when making your determination.
Use the PSERS Eligibility Worksheet to assist you with your determination. Document your eligibility decisions to help protect you in case questions arise about your decisions.
You are responsible for reporting all eligible employees from the first day of eligibility. (See Chapters 7 and 8 for instructions on how to report eligible employees.)
You are responsible for regularly reviewing the determinations you have made. By doing so, you can ensure that you are reporting correctly.
