WAC 415-112-330. How does the department calculate service credit for TRS Plan 1 employees?

For TRS Plan 1 calculations, one year of service credit consists of one hundred eighty days of instruction. (1) As a TRS Plan 1 member employed by a school district, educational service district, school for the blind, or school for the deaf: (a) Unless otherwise determined by a contract, bargaining agreement or employer policy: (i) A classroom teacher will earn one day of service credit for each seven hours of compensated employment; and (ii) A K-12 employee other than a classroom teacher will earn one day of service credit for every eight hours of compensated employment; and (b) You will earn one full year of service credit for one hundred forty-four or more days of employment during a fiscal year; or a fractional year of service credit for at least twenty days but less than one hundred forty-four days of employment during a fiscal year. The fraction will use days employed as the numerator and one hundred eighty as the denominator. (2) As a TRS Plan 1 member employed by a community or technical college: (a) Unless otherwise determined by a contract, bargaining agreement or employer policy, you will earn one day of service credit for eight hours of compensated employment; and (b) One full year of service credit when you have service for four-fifths of the adopted annual academic calendar; or a fractional year of service credit for at least twenty days but less than four-fifths of the annual academic calendar.
