If a retiree returns to work in a position eligible for SamCERA membership, they may be reinstated as an active member. Reinstatement to active SamCERA membership will suspend retirement benefits, and the retiree may return to work with no earnings limitations, work hour limits or required break in service. Their retirement pension will cease, they will pay contributions for the compensation that is earned, and they will also earn retirement service credit.

For more detailed information regarding reinstatement, please contact SamCERA.
