Orange County Employees Retirement System

Administers retirement benefits for Orange County employees and provides services to active members and retirees. Members can access retirement planning resources, initiate retirement, calculate benefits, and review steps for purchasing service credit or establishing reciprocity. Retirees can update contact and payment details and make tax withholding elections; members can also manage beneficiary information. OCERS offers retirement seminars, board meeting information, a member portal, and resources on disability, survivor benefits, employment changes, and returning to work. It does not administer health insurance. The system is based in Santa Ana, California, and provides information and assistance for Orange County public employees and their beneficiaries.
