Section 43:15A-45 - Allowance for ordinary disability retirement

A member upon retirement for ordinary disability shall receive a retirement allowance, which shall consist of:

b. A pension in the amount which, when added to the member's annuity, will provide a total retirement allowance of 1.64% of final compensation multiplied by his number of years of creditable service; provided further, that in no event shall the allowance be less than 43.6% of final compensation.
c. Upon the receipt of proper proofs of the death of a member who has retired on an ordinary disability retirement allowance, there shall be paid to such member's beneficiary, an amount equal to 1 1/2 times the compensation upon which contributions by the member to the annuity savings fund were based in the last year of creditable service; provided, however, that if such death shall occur after the member shall have attained age 60, the amount payable shall equal 3/16 of such compensation.
