retirement considerations, march 18, 2014
DESCRIPTION
This workshop was developed for all tenure-related faculty who are interested in learning about the Tenure Reduction Program (TRP). The TRP provides an opportunity for tenured faculty to gradually reduce their involvement at the UO for up to five years after retirement. This workshop addressed eligibility, rights and responsibilities, interaction with PERS and other retirement funds, faculty standing in the department and university, types of instructional assignments, class enrollments, alternatives to teaching, and constraints on employment and sustaining PERS eligibility. The workshop was facilitated by Ken Doxsee, Associate Vice Provost for Academic Affairs; Ernie Pressman, Benefits Administrator, Human Resources; and Sonia Potter, Director, Unclassified Personnel Services.TRANSCRIPT
