Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
Participation in the Faculty Early Retirement Program shall be
						subject to the following conditions:
(a)
					 Within the limitation set forth in the applicable retirement law for such
					 post-retirement service, retirant shall have the right to continued employment for
					 one term each academic year at the rank held at the time of retirement, unless the
					 employee elects otherwise, until attaining mandatory retirement age or until the
					 conclusion of the academic year in which he or she attains mandatory retirement age.
					 As used in this Article, "mandatory retirement age" means the mandatory retirement
					 age as provided in Government Code Section
					 20981.
					 Retirant's right to continued employment shall terminate at an earlier date in the
					 event of dismissal for cause, layoff, or failure to meet the employment commitment.
					 For purposes of layoff affecting a retirant's teaching service area, the order for
					 layoff shall be in the inverse order of the retirant's total length of service at
					 the campus, including service before and after retirement.
(b) Retirants shall serve during the term of
					 employment determined by the campus.
(c)
					 Retirant's time base for service under this Article shall be the same as his or her
					 time base during the academic year immediately prior to retirement.
(d) During his or her term of service, a retirant
					 serving full time under this Article shall fulfill his or her employment obligation
					 and service contributions, including teaching, advisement, committee service, and
					 other instructionally related assignments which would be required if such person had
					 not retired, provided that such obligations, contributions, and assignments shall
					 not extend beyond the conclusion of the term of service under this Article. For
					 purposes of such obligations, contributions, and assignments, a retirant shall be
					 deemed a tenured member of the faculty.
(e) With the consent of the campus president, a
					 participant in this program may be granted leave without pay for one or more terms
					 in which he or she is scheduled to teach. After electing to participate in this
					 program, a retirant shall be entitled to one leave of absence without pay for a term
					 in which he or she is scheduled to teach if such leave is needed because of the
					 participant's personal illness. No compensated leave of any kind, other than sick
					 leave, shall be allowed participants in this program. The balance of accrued sick
					 leave time of members of Public Employees' Retirement System and State Teachers'
					 Retirement System is converted to service credit at the time of retirement and is
					 therefore not available for use by retirants serving in this program. Retirants
					 serving in the early retirement program shall accrue sick leave benefits in the same
					 manner and subject to the same regulations as other employees of the California
					 State University.
