What is the difference between PERS and PSERS?
The major difference between PERS and PSERS is that PSERS will provide full retirement benefits at age 65 with at least five years of service credit or at age 60 with 10 years of PSERS service. For those with at least 20 years of service, early retirement will be available at age 53, with a benefit reduction of three percent per year from age sixty.
