How Do I Earn Credits Towards My Pension?
You earn credits by working for an employer who contributes to the Plan. You earn pension credit for each weekly pay period that you work in covered employment. Once you’ve worked 40 weeks in a year, you’ve earned one full pension credit for that year (which is the most you can earn in a year). The maximum number of pension credits you can earn in a lifetime is 25. We keep track of your credits throughout your career, from the day your Pension Plan participation starts until the day it ends.
