  • Retirement Incentive 1. For a Bargaining Unit Member to qualify for this program, he/she must be a full time (30 or more hours per week) employee in the Hononegah Community High School District #207 for a period of not less than twenty (20) years prior to the date of retirement. Any Bargaining Unit Member for whom the district must pay any additional amount as a penalty to IMRF so that such an employee may benefit from the “IMRF” Early Retirement Incentive Program” will not be eligible to receive any payment as part of this retirement incentive program. No later than thirty (30) days prior to the intended date of retirement from the school district, the Bargaining Unit Member must submit a formal letter of retirement indicating his/her intent to retire from the public school systems of Illinois under the provisions of the Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund. Upon meeting the above eligibility requirements, any Bargaining Unit Member who qualifies for this Retirement Incentive Program shall be paid a monetary incentive calculated as follows: The total amount of the incentive shall be equal to Twenty-Five Percent (25%) of the base wages plus overtime for each of the “base years.” The base years shall be the most recent complete fiscal year worked by the Bargaining Unit Member prior to providing an irrevocable letter of retirement, as described below. [Example: Employee A provides an irrevocable letter of retirement on March 1, 2014. Employee A’s incentive shall be 25% of total base wages for the 2012-2013 fiscal year including overtime because the 2012-2013 fiscal is the latest complete year worked.] The incentive will be paid in increments described below, based upon the timing of the notice. If a Bargaining Unit Member gives 30-days’ notice of retirement, the Bargaining Unit Member may receive a post-retirement bonus of 25% of his salary of the latest complete year worked. This bonus will be paid 30 days after the Bargaining Unit Member’s last day of work or receipt of final paycheck, whichever is later. The post-retirement payment shall not be considered IMRF creditable earnings nor shall it be considered due or payable during the course of the Bargaining Unit Member’s employment with the District. A Bargaining Unit Member may provide notice up to four (4) years prior to retiring. If an irrevocable notice of retirement is received before July 1st of the Bargaining Unit Member’s final work year, then the Bargaining Unit Member shall receive Six Percent (6%) of the Twenty-Five Percent (25%) incentive in the final year of employment and shall receive the balance of the incentive no later than thirty (30) days after the Bargaining Unit Member’s last day of work or receipt of final paycheck, whichever is later. The post-retirement payment shall not be considered IMRF creditable earnings nor shall it be considered due or payable during the course of the Bargaining Unit Member’s employment with the District. In no case shall a Bargaining Unit Member’s IMRF creditable earnings exceed 106% of the prior year’s creditable earnings. Accordingly, any amount of the retirement incentive exceeding a six percent (6%) increase over the prior year’s earnings shall be paid the excess amount as part of the post-retirement payment and not as creditable earnings. [Example: Employee B’s base wages for the base year were $20,000.00. The total incentive is $5,000.00 (25% of the base wages for the base year). Employee B provides notice on June 1, 2014, of intent to retire effective June 30, 2015. During the 2014-2015 fiscal year, the employee receives a normal pay increase equal to $400.00.

Employee B shall also receive a post- retirement payment of $4,200.00.] If an irrevocable notice of retirement is received before July 1st of the Bargaining Unit Member’s final two (2) work years, then the Bargaining Unit Member shall receive Six Percent (6%) of the Twenty-Five Percent (25%) incentive in each of the final two (2) years of employment, and shall receive the balance of the incentive no later than thirty (30) days after the Bargaining Unit Member’s last day of work or receipt of final paycheck, whichever is later. The post-retirement payment shall not be considered IMRF creditable earnings nor shall it be considered due or payable during the course of the Bargaining Unit Member’s employment with the District. In no case shall a Bargaining Unit Member’s IMRF creditable earnings exceed 106% of the prior year’s creditable earnings. Accordingly, any amount of the retirement incentive exceeding a six percent (6%) increase over the prior year’s earnings shall be paid the excess amount as part of the post- retirement payment and not as creditable earnings. [Example: Employee B’s Base wages for the base year were $20,000.00. Her total incentive is $5,000.00 (25% of the base wages for the base year).

During the 2014-2015 fiscal year, Employee B shall receive additional compensation of $800.00. During the 2015-2016 fiscal year, Employee B shall receive additional compensation of $800.00. Employee B shall also receive a post-retirement payment of $3,400.00] If an irrevocable notice of retirement is received before July 1st of the Bargaining Unit Member’s final three (3) work years, then the Bargaining Unit Member shall receive Six Percent (6%) of the Twenty-Five Percent (25%) incentive in each of the final three (3) years of employment, and shall receive the balance of the incentive no later than thirty (30) days after the Bargaining Unit Member’s last day of work or receipt of final paycheck, whichever is later.

(2) Under this plan, participating Employees agree to defer a portion of their Salary for four (4) consecutive Academic Years and the Employer agrees to grant the Employee leave in the fifth year, and to use the amounts deferred in the previous four (4) years to pay the Employee's Salary during the period of the leave. Participation in the plan is subject to operational requirements. (3) During the period of leave, Employees may engage in whatever activities they wish. (4) The individual plan for each participating Employee is a six (6) Academic Year period consisting of the following: (a) The first four consecutive years during which the Employee draws 80% of Salary earned in each of the four years and defers the remaining 20%; (b) The fifth consecutive year in which the Employee takes the leave, and is paid from the amounts deferred above plus any interest earned on the deferred funds; and (c) The sixth consecutive year in which the Employee returns to employment with the Public Service of Nunavut for a minimum of one year. (5) There is no maximum number of Employees allowed to enter the plan. (6) Executive Directors ensure that approved leaves do not impair the future operation of their School Operations. (7) Employees make written application to their Executive Director. Applications should state the proposed start of the Salary deferral and the proposed period of leave. (8) The Executive Director reviews the application and the requirements of the School Operations and notifies the Employee and the respective Department of Finance, Pay and Benefits Officer at least six (6) weeks prior to the start of Salary Deferral. (9) Each participant will sign an agreement covering the details of the plan. (10) In each year of the plan preceding the period of the leave, the Employee will be paid 80% of the applicable Salary. The remaining 20% of Salary will be deferred and this amount will be retained in trust by the Employer to finance payments during the period of leave. (11) The deferred Salary will be placed in a trust fund by the Government and any returns on the investment of the trust will be used to pay the participant during the period of leave.

Arrangements can be made to have deductions from pay for some of these benefits. (15) Upon return from leave, the Department will place the Employee in the position held at the commencement of the leave. (16) Returning Employees will have their qualifications re-assessed and placed on the appropriate pay scale. (17) The Employer shall cancel participation in the plan and shall refund, within 60 days, the total of the deferred Salary plus earnings from the plan if the Employee dies or employment is otherwise terminated. (18) Where operational requirements would not be met if the Employee proceeded on leave in the fifth year, or where exceptional changes in personal circumstances make the leave unfeasible, the Employer will give the Employee the choice of the following: (a) withdrawing from the plan and taking a refund of the total in the deferred salary account; or (b) deferring the period of leave to either the sixth or the seventh academic consecutive year or to some other mutually agreeable time.
