ERFC Is a Defined-Benefit Retirement Plan

ERFC Contribution Sources

ERFC is a defined-benefit retirement plan known as a pension, in which a specific amount is guaranteed for each participant for life after retirement. Generally, FCPS employees are automatically enrolled as members if they are a full-time educational, administrative, or support employee and they are eligible for a retirement benefit after five years of service. The ERFC pension supplements the primary benefits you'll earn from the Virginia Retirement System (VRS) and Social Security.
