The Public Employees' Retirement Law (PERL) creates the Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS) to provide defined benefits to members of the system based on final compensation, credited service, and age at retirement, subject to certain variations. PERS is administered by its board of administration. Existing law, applicable to agencies that contract with PERS to provide benefits to their employees, requires a payment of $500 to be made to a beneficiary upon the death of a member after retirement and while receiving a retirement allowance from PERS, unless otherwise provided. This bill, for a death occurring on or after July 1, 2023, would increase the amount of the above-described benefit to $2,000.
