§  506.  Ordinary disability benefits.   a. A member in active service   who is  not  eligible  for  a  normal  retirement  benefit  shall,  upon   completing  five  years or more of service, be eligible for the ordinary   disability benefit described in subdivision b of this  section  if  such   member  has  been  determined to be eligible for primary social security   disability benefits; provided, however, that no member of the  New  York   state   teachers'  retirement  system,  the  New  York  city  employees'   retirement system, the New  York  city  board  of  education  retirement   system,  the  New  York city teachers' retirement system or the New York   state and local employees' retirement system who is  otherwise  eligible   for  ordinary  disability  benefits  pursuant  to  this section shall be   deemed to be  ineligible  for  such  benefits  because  such  member  is   eligible for a normal service retirement benefit.b.  The ordinary disability benefit hereunder shall be a pension equal   to the greater of  (i)  thirty-three  and  one-third  percent  of  final   average  salary, or (ii) two percent of final average salary times years   of credited service not in excess of the maximum years  of  service  for   computing service retirement, such benefit in each case to be reduced by   fifty  percent  of  the  primary  social  security disability benefit as   provided in section five hundred eleven and one hundred percent  of  any   workmen's compensation benefits payable.c.  For  the  purpose  of  applying  the five year service eligibility   requirement in subdivision a of this section,  service  shall  mean  all   credited service rendered since a member last joined a public retirement   system.  Provided  however,  if  the  member  had  been in active public   service prior to joining the  system  involved,  all  continuous  public   service  immediately  prior  to  the date of membership shall be counted   toward the five year  service  requirement.  For  the  purpose  of  this   subdivision,  continuous  public  service  shall  mean  service during a   period in which an employee was not off the payroll of a public employer   for more than thirty days.c-1. Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of subdivision a or  b   of  this  section,  the  ordinary disability benefit for a New York city   enhanced plan member in active service who is not eligible for a  normal   retirement benefit, has completed five years or more of service, and has   been  determined  to  be eligible for primary social security disability   benefits shall be a pension equal to the greater of (i) thirty-three and   one-third percent of final average salary, or (ii) two percent of  final   average  salary  times  years  of  credited service not in excess of the   maximum years of service for computing service retirement, such  benefit   in  each  case  to  be  reduced  by  one hundred percent of any workers'   compensation benefits payable.d. The provisions of subdivisions d,  e,  f  and  g  of  section  five   hundred  seven  of this chapter shall apply to disability benefits under   this section.
