(c) If the member was employed fewer than 12 months at the time of death or disability, the employer shall certify the current annual rate of pay of the member and the amount of compensation actually earned by the member for the period of time during which the employee was actually employed.

(d) If an employer has designated, in writing, certain positions that are filled by employees who from time to time are not actively employed but who are permanent employees who will return to active employment at a date certain, not to exceed 92 days, these employees shall be considered active employees for insurance purposes during this period. No employer may designate any position or employee as provided above more than once in any 12-month period. The annual rate of compensation for these employees shall be certified by the employer at the time any claim for insurance benefits is made. Each member's "annual rate of compensation" during the period the member is not actively employed shall be computed as set forth above.

If the member is disabled for five years or more, the compensation shall be adjusted pursuant to K.S.A. 74-4927(2)(C), and amendments thereto.

(g) For the purpose of this regulation, retroactive changes made after the date of death or disability shall be considered in determining the annual rate of compensation. In case of doubt, "annual rate of compensation" shall be determined by the board.

Kan. Admin. Regs. § 80-55-8 Retirement allowance calculation; basis of

The following procedure shall be used for the purpose of determining the basis of the retirement allowance calculation. (a) Months of prior service credited to a member shall be divided by 12 to arrive at the total number of years; any decimal remainder shall be converted to quarters. Quarters of participating service credited to a member shall be divided by four to arrive at the total number of years and quarters. Total prior service years and quarters shall be added to total participating service years and quarters, including all purchased service, to arrive at the total number of years and quarters available. If the remainder is two quarters or more, it shall be counted as an additional year; if the remainder is fewer than two quarters, it shall be disregarded.

(b) For the determination of "final average salary," a year shall consist of a four-quarter block of credited service in the last five years of service, whether continuous or not. The four quarters selected shall be taken in sequence, as earned, not selected at random.

(c) The last quarter of compensation before the member's retirement date may be excluded if the member's retirement benefit would be adversely affected by including this quarter of compensation.
