The Air District provides a wide range of benefits to its employees via a cafeteria-style plan. Employees receive a "fringe benefit allowance" to pay for various types of insurance, including health, dental and vision. The amount of the allowance varies for different groups of employees.
The Air District contracts with the California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS) for retirement benefits under the miscellaneous "2% @ 55" plan. The Air District currently pays the employer contribution and a portion of the employee contribution for retirement.
Other benefits for Air District employees include a transit subsidy, education reimbursement, vacation and sick leave, and holidays.
