Retirement Plans
The Seminole County Sheriff's Office participates in the Florida Retirement System (FRS) which offers two outstanding plans for employees: the Pension Plan and the Investment Plan. Under each plan, employees contribute a small percentage of their gross salary toward the plan and the SCSO contributes a percentage, as well. These percentages are subject to change annually based on the FRS guidelines and are not determined by the SCSO. For more details, please visit http://www.myfrs.com.
The Pension Plan is a traditional retirement pension plan. Employees are vested after reaching a certain number of years of service at any age (currently eight years of service) or after reaching a pre-designated age with a minimum number of years of service. The benefit an employee receives at retirement is calculated using a formula based on the employee’s age, FRS membership class, years of FRS service, and an average of the highest years of salary. The State Board of Administration invests all Pension Plan assets. At retirement, distributions are made in monthly installments and are guaranteed for the employee’s lifetime.
The Investment Plan is a 401(k)-type retirement investment plan with the employee fully-vested after one year of service. The employee utilizes the FRS Plan’s list of funds to determine their investments of contributions. The benefits an employee receives are based on the account balance at retirement, which depends on the amount of funds the employee and employer have contributed, the investment earnings of the funds selected, and any fees or expenses charged by those funds. The distribution can be paid in a lump sum, a roll-over to another qualified plan, a customized payment schedule, lifetime guaranteed payments, or any combination of these.
