RETIREMENT AND SOCIAL SECURITY. The following descriptions of the City’s retirement programs are intended to summarize the provisions of the formal benefit Plan documents. These descriptions do not attempt to cover all the details contained in the Plan documents or all applicable State and Federal laws and regulations applicable to government retirement plans. For each benefit, the operation of the Plan, including events making employees eligible or ineligible for benefits, the amount of benefits to which employees (or beneficiaries) may be entitled, and actions employees (or beneficiaries) must take to request and support a claim for benefits will be governed solely by the terms of the official Plan document. To the extent that any of the information contained in this employee handbook, other educational materials, or any information you receive orally is inconsistent with the official Plan document, the provisions set forth in the Plan document will govern. If you have questions or wish to review specific Plan document provisions, please contact Human Resources. All full-time employees may elect to participate in City sponsored retirement programs. The city will only provide employer contributions to a single plan for each employee. New employees must elect whether to participate in the Maine Public Employees Retirement System (MainePERS) within sixty days of their date of hire. This election is irrevocable under federal law, meaning that an employee who joins the MainePERS plan will not be able to leave the MainePERS plan for the duration of their employment with the City. Similarly, if an employee declines to join MainePERS, they will not be able to later elect to join MainePERS and have pre-tax contributions made to MainePERS. The MainePERS Limited Open Enrollment Plan listed in Section B below only permits contributions with after-tax dollars. An employee’s election to join the MainePERS Limited Open Enrollment Plan is also irrevocable. The City also offers a 401(a) Money Purchase Plan through Mission Square Retirement (the “401(a) Plan”) to all full-time employees. Employees may participate in either MainePERS or the 401(a) Plan, but not both. If an employee elects to join the 401(a) Plan, the employee is not eligible for the MainePERS Limited Open Enrollment, because the election to join the 401(a) Plan is irrevocable. Depending on the retirement plan elected by the employee, the City shall make employer contributions at a level specified by either MainePERS or the 401(a) Plan ...
