Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

(40 ILCS 5/17-127.2)

Sec. 17-127.2.

Additional contributions by employer of teachers.

Beginning July 1, 1998, the employer of a teacher shall pay to the
Fund an employer contribution computed as follows:

(1) Beginning July 1, 1998 through June 30, 1999, the

employer contribution shall be equal to 0.3% of each teacher's salary.

(2) Beginning July 1, 1999 and thereafter, the

employer contribution shall be equal to 0.58% of each teacher's salary.

The employer may pay these employer contributions out of any source of funding
available for that purpose and shall forward the contributions to the Fund on
the schedule established for the payment of member contributions.

These employer contributions need not be made in a fiscal year if the Board
has certified in the previous fiscal year that the Fund is at least 90% funded,
based on actuarial determinations.

These employer contributions are intended to offset a portion of the cost to
the Fund of the increases in retirement benefits resulting from Public Act
90-582.
