• INTERIM BENEFITS STUDY

    The Texas Legislature directed ERS to study the best options for providing sustainable, competitive benefits for state employees and retirees. We know benefits are an important tool for recruiting and retaining employees, and we want to include you in the discussion. We will submit our recommendations to the Legislature on September 1, 2012.
