State Employee Pension Plan - Early Retirement

EARLY RETIREMENT:

You may retire with a reduced service pension if you have reached age 55 and have at least 15 years of credited service, not counting any claimed or purchased service other than purchased service for sabbatical leave and military service (interrupting employment). However, in order to reflect the longer period of time over which payments will be made, your pension is the regular service pension calculation, reduced by 0.2% for each month you are under age 60 when you retire.
