I was a Tier One or Tier Two member (Tier One members were hired into a PERS-qualifying position before January 1, 1996; Tier Two members were hired into a PERS-qualifying position on or after January 1, 1996.)
US census information is used to determine PERS employer eligibility for exemptions to the Chapter 238 Program (Tier One/Tier Two) retiree 1,039-hour/calendar year work limit. Employers should use year 2000 census population information to determine positions exempt from the 1,039-hour limit, not estimated population size.
