Employment of Retired Ohio Teachers

Employer Procedures
When employing a retiree from any Ohio public retirement system as a temporary or full-time teacher, the employer must complete a Reemployed Retiree Notification form. College and university employers should send us a separate form, Reemployed Retiree Notification for College and University Employers.

The Reemployed Retiree Notification form can be submitted using one of the following methods:

This form must be submitted within 10 days of the retiree’s first date on payroll. Failure to file this form when due may result in the employer’s liability for any overpayment of benefits.

Section 3307.353, Revised Code, mandates that any school board proposing to continue the employment of a person in a position that is customarily filled by a vote of a board or commission, or to rehire a person as a reemployed retiree to the same position he or she held before retiring, must comply with the following guidelines:

  • No less than 60 days before the employment of a reemployed retiree is to begin, the board must give public notice that the person is or will be retired and is seeking employment with the employer.
  • Between 15 and 30 days before the employment of a reemployed retiree is to begin, the board must hold a public meeting on the issue of the person being employed.

If you have any questions about these guidelines, please contact your legal counsel.
