Retirement


Welcome to the Cobb County Government Employees' Pension Plan.

As a new employee to Cobb County government, the foundation of your benefit package is the Cobb County Government Employees' Pension Plan. All full-time employees joining the Cobb team will be enrolled in the Pension Plan. Your pre-tax contribution will lower your tax liability while you work and will enhance your pension benefit when you retire.

The good news is that you can never lose your investment. If you remain employed with the County until you retire or if you leave after becoming vested your benefit will be calculated based upon a benefit formula. If you leave the county’s employment prior to becoming vested, your contribution will be returned to you plus interest (an approved amount of annually compounded interest).

The plan provisions are: (Effective 01-01-09)
  • The benefit formula is to 2.5 percent for each year of service.
  • The "Rule of 80" (Service + Age = 80) unreduced retirement benefit.
  • A 5.25 percent pre-tax employee contribution.
Active military duty up to a maximum of 4 years will be counted as Service for retirement of employees. This credit for military service will be recognized upon completion of eight (8) years of service with Cobb County. Credited military service will not increase the retirement benefit calculation, but will qualify as service for the Rule of 80 retirement. This means that you will meet the Rule of 80 earlier. If you receive the maximum number of years credit (4 years) you would be able to retire two (2) years earlier.
