Glossary

Active Members are currently employed by an ACERA participating employer and are working (or have worked) in a full-time retirement-eligible position.

Deferred Members have ceased active employment and have left their retirement contributions on deposit with ACERA—and have not yet retired.

Retired Members have retired from ACERA and are receiving their monthly retirement allowance payments.
 

General Members are members who are not Safety Members.

Safety Members work in law enforcement or positions that have been designated as Safety by the Board of Retirement (e.g., Sheriff’s Deputies, Probation Officers, etc.).
