Teachers, others could face retirement changes - Salt Lake Tribune


Teachers, others could face retirement changes - Salt Lake Tribune:

"When Bill Broderick retired from his job teaching math last school year, he wasn't necessarily looking for another one.

But the Granite Technical Institute was looking for someone like him: an experienced educator with the skills to teach computer programming. He decided to apply and started his new job shortly after retiring.

'We are being sought after,' Broderick said of teachers like himself who return to teaching after they retire, earning pension payments, reduced salaries and 401(k) contributions. 'The people who have been hired back are bringing experience you can't get anywhere else.'"
