(SUCSS Rule 250.110)

The University requests that employees who are resigning give at least a two week notice to their supervisor and notify Human Resources for timely processing of resignation and any payouts. By emailing Human Resources - Employment indicating the last day of work and reason for resignation, a resignation form will be processed and the employee will be notified once it is ready for signature. 

No resignation is considered official until a signed form is accepted in Human Resources. A clearance form will be given to the employee upon acceptance of the resignation.  No final check will be issued by Payroll until a completed termination clearance sheet is received.

Holiday pay

Holiday pay is paid only if employees are in work status the day before a holiday, and continue employment after the holiday.

Benefits

Participation in the State Universities Retirement System (SURS) provides disability, death and survivor, and retirement benefits. Employees may retire at any age without benefit reduction with at least 30 years of service credit. Employees may retire at age 62 with 5 years of service credit. Employees may retire at age 55 with at least 8 years of service credit. Employees who retire between the ages of 55 and 60 under the general formula, will have a reduction in benefits unless the employee and the employer make a one-time lump sum payment to buy out the discount and the employee retires on or before August 31, 1997. Retirement at age 60 or later is without benefit reduction based on age.

Lifetime retirement annuity is calculated three ways, and employees are paid the highest amount calculated. Call 298-1853 to schedule an appointment to explore retirement options.

To receive SURS benefits, employees must file an application. This application should be completed as soon as possible when benefits or refunds are needed.

Employees of °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²ÊÀúÊ·¼Ç¼ are not currently eligible for Federal Social Security employment credit; therefore, no Social Security tax is withheld from earnings. Employees beginning employment on or after April 1, 1986, are required by federal law to pay the 1.45% Medicare tax which deducted from their paycheck.

For additional information, call 298-1853 or call SURS at 1-800-ASK-SURS.

Refund

Employees who resign and apply for a refund, will receive all of their contributions plus 4 1/2% interest. Employees may defer taxation by rolling the refund into an Individual Retirement Account (IRA). If the refund is not rolled over into an IRA, SURS will withhold 20% income tax from the refund; and the employee will owe an additional 10% federal income tax penalty on the refund.
