Annual reports of the Seattle City Employees' Retirement System.

 

Historical Note

The original authority for a retirement system came from an amendment to the City Charter submitted to the voters at the Municipal election of March 8, 1927. By the mid-1950s, within certain limitations, all officers and employees of the City were able to have membership in the Retirement System. Exceptions were the uniformed members of the police and fire departments who were under relief and pensions systems prescribed by State law. Beginning in 1956, the Retirement System was coordinated with Federal Social Security through Ordinances 84510 and 84566.

Content Description

The Employees' Retirement System annual reports date from 1930; annual reports will continue to be added to the series. Early reports contain some narrative prefacing the financial information. Other information in the report includes lists of individuals on the pension and disability rolls as well as departmental news to the retirement system. For some years, both published and unpublished reports are included.
