§ 24109 Disability Retirement Workers' Comp Offset

Key Takeaways

  • •If you get hurt at work and get money from workers' comp, your retirement money might be less.
  • •The retirement money is only cut if the workers' comp is for the same injury that makes you retire early.
  • •Workers' comp money for temporary or permanent disability or job training counts toward this cut.

Example

A firefighter gets hurt on the job and can't work anymore. They get workers' comp for their injury and also apply for early retirement because of the same injury.

The money they get from early retirement will be reduced by the amount they get from workers' comp for the same injury.
