If You Decide to Work After You Retire

After retirement, you may decide that you’re ready to return to the workforce. People decide to return to work after retirement for various reasons—to try a new career, to have more interaction with others, or for financial concerns. Whatever the reason, it’s important to understand how your retirement benefits may be affected, based on:

  • Your age.
  • The type of employer for whom you work.
  • How much you earn.

It’s a good idea to contact IPERS before beginning any postretirement employment.
