LAGERS has been monitoring the impact of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) in an effort to ensure we are proactively protecting the health and safety of our members, staff, and all we come in contact with.

The options for employer election range from the benefit multiplier, final average salary, retirement ages, and employee contributions.
