Employer Contribution Rates
Employer contribution rates are set annually and typically vary from year-to-year. Employer contribution rates are recommended annually by the ACERA’s actuary in its Actuarial Valuation. Rates depend on the level of established benefits, rate of return on investments, and the cost of administering benefits.
