“We do not believe,” he said,
“that public employee problems
can be adequately resolved within
the framework of industrial

the methodology and techniques
of the labor union are applicable
to the government service.”

Mr, Powers continued, saying

Decrying the long delay tn es-

Rules for the Division of State
Police, the Civil Servico Employees
Association has asked Police Supt,
Francis 8, McGarvey to set about
immediately in getting such rules
in effect,

‘The Association also asked that
immediate steps be taken to class-
ify and allocate the Division's civ-
ilian employees to the salary
grades provided under Section 40
of the Civil Service Law,

Mr, Powers’ letter read:

“We are writing concerning sev-
eral matters involving your Divi-

long promised but in which re-
sults have not been forthcoming.

“You will recall that almost two
years ago the State Civil Service
Department decided that the At-

of State Police. At that time, the
Division, at the instruction of the
Governor, undertook to prepare

Under the bill granting vesting

titled to pension benefits, provid-
ing he left his accumulated con-
tributions on deposit and had
reached a certain eligibility age.

“We fell that the record makes
clear the nature of the grievance
claimed but for the sake of sim-
plicity we would summarize the
grievance which we ask the Board
to consider as follows: The inati-

grieved in that they are required

‘This patent discrimination is even

more obvious when it ts realized |

“We might point out that while
we are, technically speaking, the
group representative for those em-
ployees at Brooklyn State Hospital

have also been requested by all

failure to include within such

YOU AN

D

RETIREMENT

By FRANCIS M. CASEY
Member, CSEA Field Staff

lan stated: “the effectiveness and |
productivity of Individual judges,

Tam a State employee, a female
who will be 62 years of age In
January 1960, I have signed
Tor Social Security and pald my
\vetroactive coverage back to
March 16, 1956, Will I have!
enough quarters at that time to
qualify for benefits or will it be
necessary to work beyond that
time?

A new amendment to the Social
Security Law provides that any-
one having all but four quarters)
of coverage since 1954 (this would
cover the four quarters from Jan-
uary 1, 1955 to December 31,
1955), would be fully covered upon
attaining retirement age. 62 for
, Women and 65 for men.

|

I will be 62 years of age in Jan-
wary 1960 and will have completed
25 years of servive In April of
1960, Tam participating under the
55-Year Plan and also have)
elected to come under Social Se- |
curity. What would my approxi-
mate retirement allowance and)
Social Security benefits amount to,
should I retire after attainment of
age 627 Also would I be permit-
ted, as a retiree, to carn up to
$1200 per annum while receiving
both State Retirement allowance
and also Social Security benefits?

Since there are so many factors
involved in calculating a retire-
ment allowance, it is not possible
to furnish you with the informa-|
tion requested in the first part
of your question. The New York
State Retirement System will
gladiy furnish you an estimate
upon request. You may carn any
amount, earned from a private
employer, without affecting your
retirement allowance and your re-
tlrement allowance will not affect
your Social Security benefits.
However, you are restricted to
earnings of not more than $1200
to be eligible to receive Social Se-
curity benefits,

Tam a member of the State Re~
tirement System and in the 55-
Year Plan, Wf I should decide to
retire at age 55, can I be re-
employed in either private indus-
try or by the Federal Govern-
ment? If so, what ts the amount
of salary Tam permitted to earn?

If you retire under the 55-year
Pian, or the 60-Year Plan,
may be employed by private in-
dustry or the Federal Government,
or if you move out of the State by
any local unit of
without any restrictions whatso-
ever on your earnings,

1am a member of the State)

Retirement System nee July
| 1945. Tam new 66 years of age.
Can I retire at any time and with-
draw my contributions in a lump

sum in How of & retirement allow- |
ance, or must I accept one of the |

options of the Retirement System
and draw monthly cheeks?

Since you have become a mem-
ber subsequent to April 1943
and ure over age sixty and have
over five years of allowable ser-
vice, you cannot withdraw your
contributions in a lump sum but

you |

wovernment |

1 an employee of the New
York State Waterways and my
Job came under Civil Service

| Aprit 1, 1953. 1 will be 70 years

of age in 1960, Could I draw out
my money from the Retirement
System fn a lump sum—if not, is
there any way I can tell how much
pension I will draw’

In your question you have stated
that you came under Civil Service
on April 1, 1953. It would, there-
fore, appear that you became a
member of the New York State
Employees’ Retirement System on
or after that date. If that is the

jcase you would come under the

provision of the law which pro-
vides that any member becoming
& member on or after April 6,
1943, and who has had five years
of allowable service, and whose
retirement allowance would ex-
ceed three hundred dollars per
| year, may not withdraw his accu-
mulated contributions in a lump
sum but miust take a retitement
allowance payable monthty.

Since there are.so many fac-
tors involved Im computing » re~
tirement allowance, it is not pos-
sible to furnish you information as
to the amount of retirement al-
lowance you will receive. However,
upon your request the Retirement
System will furnish you an esti-
mate of your retirement allow-
ance,

What happens if a member whe
has filed an application for re«
tirement dies during the 30-day
period, prior to the effective date
of his retirement?

‘The retirement does not become
effective. The designated benefi-
clary or estate will receive the re-
turn of the member's contribu-
Uons with interest plus the ordi-
nary death benefit.

May I make additional contri-
butions to the Retirement System
Fund?

Any member of the Retirement
System, by written notice duly
acknowledged and filed with the
Comptroller, may elect to make
additional contributions ut the
rave of fifty per centum of his rate
| of normal contribution (sixty year
retirement rate) for the purpose
of purchasing additianal annuity,
provided, however, that no such
additional contributions shall be
made with respect to that portion
of the member's compensation in
excess of ten thousand dollars per
annum.

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER

Reform Assn. Cites Blocks
To Improved Civil Service

Ways and means of solving re-
¢rultment problems, retaining able
talent and making broad improve-
ments in the 1 service were
outlined in the annual report of
the Civil Service Reform Associa-
tion, adopted at the organisation's
Bist annual meeting

‘The report was released by Wil-

cis

Ham C. Greenough, chairman of
the association's executive com-
mittee.

‘The Association noted that this

year, which marks the 75th an-
Niversary of the State civil serv-
fee law, is an important time to
move ahead, Governor-elect Rock-

efeller “has a unique opportunity
to take a careful look at the |
State's personnel picture, its rep- |

utation as an employer, its abili-
ty to meet the continuously grow-
tng demands on the State service.”
In the City, four years have gone
by since Mayor Wagner's new
personnel Jaw was adopted and “it |

in the broadest possible perspect-
ive to sce what the program has
accomplished in terms of the ef-
ficlency and quality of services to

the public. We believe the
‘Career and Salary’ program es-
Peclally would profit by such #
survey."

Fixed Hindrances

Resolution Cited

The delegates ut the last annu-
al meeting of the CSEA In Octo-
ber unanimously adopted a reso-
lution calling for the continued

State employees having the same
titles in the administrative State
Departments throughout the State
The State institutional office
workers work the additional 2\
hours per week without additional
pay. The Mental Hygiene Em-
ployees Association adopted a sim
ilar resolution their meeting
also held in October

The Civil Employees
Association has sought removal
of this discrimination against in-
stitutional office employees and
has appealed to the Governor and
other State authorities on behalf
of these emplo:
SEA ta very hopeful that the
State Grievance Board will decide
in favor of t he employees affect
ed and that the State agencies in
volved will take the necessary
steps to correct this discrimination
against the institutional office
workers,
