Federal Civil Pension Plan Sparks Debate In Washington
The Tribune reports on Keep Commission proposals for a federal civil pension list. Critics challenge the premise that pensions are needed to protect government efficiency, arguing retirement rules and nonfinancial factors make automatic retirements unnecessary. The piece notes congressional resistance to fixed age limits and remarks on generous federal employee benefits, hours, and leaves in contrast to private sector norms.
Government Keep pension plan raises old age questions
The proposal would let workers fund a personal annuity by withholding part of their salary, with the state covering unpaid past premiums. It would grant an immediate Treasury bonus and endow the program with about 50 to 55 million dollars over 40 to 45 years, seen as costly but aimed at avoiding government employment superannuation problems.
