ADJUSTMENT (COLA) CHART
The
percentage shown for your year of retirement is applied to your
"regular allowance" to determine your COLA. To find your
regular allowance, see the "Curent Earnings" section of
the Statement of Allowances and Deductions which accompanies
your monthly pension check, or call (609) 777-1777 and and follow
the prompts to "Retirement Information" to hear your allowances
and deductions over the phone.
For additional information on the
calculation of your COLA, see Fact Sheet #18,
Cost-of-Living Adjustments.
