Benefits and credited service accrue on the basis of the employee's occupational category. If an employee has credited service both as a peace officer or fireman and as an elected official or regular employee, the portion of that employee's benefit attributable to each category of service will be calculated separately under the benefit provision applicable to each occupational category. Average monthly compensation will be determined once to apply to all categories of service in accordance with AS 39.35.680.
2 AAC 35.280
Effective 7/20/2006, Register 179, the Department of Administration readopted 2 AAC 35.280, without change, to affirm the validity of that section following statutory amendments made in ch. 9, FSSLA 2005. Chapter 9, FSSLA 2005 eliminated the Public Employees' Retirement Board, and largely transferred the board's authority to adopt regulations in 2 AAC 35 to the commissioner of administration.
