Retirement
If an employee is eligible for retirement, he or she will make monthly contributions to the Washington State Department of Retirement Systems. To determine which plan is best for you, go to drs.wa.gov/choice to learn about the plans available, watch videos, and find calculators. It’s also important to consider other sources of retirement income as you project your monthly retirement benefits. Do you qualify for Social Security? Do you have savings in other retirement plans from past employers? All of these things should be considered as you decide which plan to join.
VEBA (Voluntary Employees’ Beneficiary Association)
The VEBA Plan is a tax-free health reimbursement arrangement (HRA) that enables your employer to make tax-free contributions into a special trust account on your behalf. These tax-free funds can then be used to pay or reimburse eligible out-of-pocket healthcare costs and premiums for yourself, your spouse, and your qualified IRS dependents.
- Whether you participate in VEBA or not, and which types of cash-outs go into VEBA is a negotiated item between each individual Collective Bargaining Agreement and Management. Refer to your CBA to see what Cash Out’s qualify to go into a VEBA Account.
- If your union participates in the VEBA program the cash-out funds will be sent to VEBA and you will be contacted by VEBA to finalize setting up your account.
Cash Outs to VEBA:
- Eligible cash-out payments will be made on the month following your final contract pay.
- Eligible sick leave and vacation cash-outs will be done automatically by payroll.
- A sick leave cash-out form will be sent to you by the HR Payroll Manager. It must be returned to the HR Payroll Manager by August 31st or within 60 business days of your termination date, whichever comes first.
- No form is necessary for vacation cash-outs.
- Contact the HR Payroll Manager Tiffany Peone with Questions on cash-outs to VEBA.
