Current Disability:
23
Reemployment: Your combined salary and benefit cannot exceed the salary you were earning before your disability or 125 percent of the base salary currently being paid by your former employer for a similar position, whichever is higher. The disability benefit must be reduced by $1 for every $3 you receive above the limit.
24
Workers Compensation: Your PERA disability benefit plus any workers' compensation you receive cannot be more than the higher of either the salary you were receiving before your disability began or the current salary for a similar position. If you are receiving PERA disability, workers' compensation, and are employed, the total of your salary and the two benefits also cannot exceed the salary limits described earlier. If the total of these three incomes exceeds the limit, your PERA disability benefit will be reduced by $1 for every $3 earned above the limit.
