§ 32356 Disability Retirement Pension Rates

Key Takeaways

  • •If you retire because you got hurt or sick (not because of your job), you get a monthly pension based on how long you worked.
  • •The longer you worked, the more money you get each month.
  • •The most you can get is half of what you were making at the end of your job.

Example

A person worked for 15 years and then got sick and had to retire.

Because they worked more than 14 years but less than 16 years, they would get $85 every month as their pension.
