The Post-Employment Benefits Task Force Forum - Afternoon Session

The Post-Employment Benefits Task Force visited UC Berkeley to talk about its work and the range of options it is considering for pension and retiree health benefits. The Task Force also shared the results of the recent employee preference survey. Two sessions were offered: A morning session for staff and staff retirees, and an afternoon session for faculty and professors emeriti.

The April meeting follows-up on meetings held last fall at which time task force members laid out the issues confronting UC in sustaining the current pension and retiree health benefits. UC President Mark Yudof appointed the Task Force in March 2009, and charged it with reviewing current retirement benefits and developing options for balancing the long-term costs of pension and retiree health benefits with the need to provide sustainable post-employment benefits to faculty and staff. The Task Force has been studying the issues and weighing input from the UC community. It will make recommendations to President Yudof later this summer on ways to change the funding and policies for post-employment benefits.
