NOTE 8 – EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

Kentucky Teachers Retirement System: All faculty and exempt employees required to hold a degree and occupying full-time positions, defined as seven-tenths (7/10) of normal full-time service on a daily or weekly basis, are required by state law to participate either in the Kentucky Teachers Retirement System (KTRS) or the Optional Retirement Plan (ORP). KTRS, a cost sharing, multiple-employer, public employee retirement system, provides retirement benefits based on an employee's final average salary and number of years of service. Benefits are subject to certain reductions if the employee retires before reaching age sixty, unless the employee has twenty-seven or more years of participation in the plan. The plan also provides for disability retirement, death and survivor benefits, and medical insurance.
