Substitute teachers play a vital role in Hawai‘i’s public schools, stepping in to ensure students continue learning when their regular teachers are absent. Whether you’re covering for a day or taking on longer assignments, substitute teaching is a rewarding way to make a difference in students’ lives while maintaining a flexible schedule.

退休后就业

The State of Hawaiʻi Employees’ Retirement System (ERS) is a qualified retirement plan under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (Code). Generally, the code prohibits the distribution of retirement benefits prior to an employee’s retirement. To help clarify when a retiree may be reemployed without suspension of benefits, a state law was passed in 2010.

A retiree can be employed into a casual position if the retiree has had a six-consecutive-calendar-month break (from their official retirement date), without being employed by any state or county agency. Casual employment includes all certificated and classified casual jobs, including all substitute employment, coaching, 89-day hires and temporary contract employees.

如果退休人员已经连续 12 个日历月没有受到任何州或县机构的聘用，则可以受聘于被认定为劳动力短缺或难以填补的职位的合同职位。

A retiree can be employed as a teacher or administrator in a teacher shortage area identified by the Department or in a charter school or as a mentor for a new classroom teacher if the retiree has had a 12-consecutive-calendar-month break (from their official retirement date).

注意：如果在退休人员退休前已达成重新雇用协议，则法律禁止重新雇用退休人员。违反者可能必须：

• 偿还重新受雇期间或多个期间收到的所有养老金福利（加上利息）。
• 支付重新雇用期间或多个期间本来应支付的任何退休金制度供款（加上利息）。
• 如果认定退休人员有过错，则应承担解决该情况产生的所有管理费用。
