HAR §6-21-8. Part-time employees

(a) For part-time employees who are included in the membership of the system, twelve months of part- time service shall be considered a year of service. (b) If an employee has service comprised of periods including both part-time and full-time employment, the part-time service shall be converted to full-time equivalent service or vice-versa, for the purpose of determining average final compensation and the retirement allowance payable. Whatever method of conversion is used, the part-time or full- time service shall conform to the same basis of part-time or full-time salary used to determine average final compensation; provided that if the employee is employed on the same part-time basis throughout the member’s membership, no conversion to full-time equivalent is required and the average final compensation shall be based on the part-time salary. (c) A fractional month of employment shall be considered a month of part-time service if it meets the requirement of section 6-21-4.
