Rule 742-5-01 | Definition of service credit.

 

(A) Years of service and years of active service shall mean years of full-time service, including a full-time appointment to the position as a police officer or firefighter, for which retirement contributions are deducted from "salary," as such term is defined in section 742.01 of the Revised Code and rule 742-3-02 of the Administrative Code and forwarded to OP&F.

(B) For purposes of determining "full-time service," OP&F may request the employer and the member to certify the full-time service, but, in any event, OP&F will determine that the contributing credit was for full-time service. In order for the service to be "full-time," as provided for in divisions (A) and (B) of section 742.01 of the Revised Code: (1) the service credit must have been rendered while employed in a full-time public position; and (2) the individual must meet the criteria for "full-time contributing service," as outlined in rule 742-5-03 of the Administrative Code.
