Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB. The State of California is responsible for setting Other Post-Employment Benefits ("OPEB") for all State employees. The current methodology is to pay these costs upfront, through an appropriation in the annual Budget Act, and annually assess participating employers, including State Fund, for their proportionate share of OPEB benefits paid. This is done on a pro-rata basis for existing retirees, and the assessment amounts attributable to employees that currently service this Agreement are included in the annual Service Fees paid under this Agreement. At this point in time, the State of California does not have a statewide policy to prefund OPEB. In the event the State of California decides to prefund OPEB on behalf of employees that directly support this Agreement, these costs would be included in the Service Fees. CalHR, on behalf of the State of California, agrees not to request State Fund to pay OPEB prefunding costs on behalf of employees who directly support this Agreement, and agrees to reimburse or make whole State Fund if the State of California requires prefunding of OPEB.
