A retired employee who accepts employment or an independent contract with a public employer under this System is disqualified from receiving any allowances under this System for the duration of that employment or contract if:(1)
The retired employee accepted the employment or contract within 90 calendar days after the effective date of the employee’s retirement; or(2)
The retired employee is employed in a position which is eligible to participate in this System.(b)
If a retired employee accepts employment or an independent contract with a public employer under this System more than 90 calendar days after the effective date of the employee’s retirement in a position which is not eligible to participate in this System, the employee’s allowance under this System terminates upon the employee’s earning an amount equal to one-half of the average salary for participating public employees who are not police officers or firefighters in any fiscal year, for the duration of that employment or contract.(c)
If a retired employee accepts employment with an employer who is not a public employer under this System, the employee is entitled to the same allowances as a retired employee who has no employment.2.
The retired employee and the public employer shall notify the System:(a)
Within 10 days after the first day of an employment or contract governed by paragraph (a) of subsection 1.(b)
Within 30 days after the first day of an employment or contract governed by paragraph (b) of subsection 1.(c)
Within 10 days after a retired employee earns more than one-half of the average salary for participating public employees who are not police officers or firefighters in any fiscal year from an employment or contract governed by paragraph (b) of subsection 1.3.
For the purposes of this section, the average salary for participating public employees who are not police officers or firefighters must be computed on the basis of the most recent actuarial valuation of the System.4.
If a retired employee who accepts employment or an independent contract with a public employer under this System pursuant to this section elects not to reenroll in the System pursuant to subsection 1 of NRS 286.525, the public employer with which the retired employee accepted employment or an independent contract may pay contributions on behalf of the retired employee to a retirement fund which is not a part of the System in an amount not to exceed the amount of the contributions that the public employer would pay to the System on behalf of a participating public employee who is employed in a similar position.5.
If a retired employee is chosen by election or appointment to fill an elective public office, the retired employee is entitled to the same allowances as a retired employee who has no employment, unless the retired employee is serving in the same office in which the retired employee served and for which the retired employee received service credit as a member. A public employer may pay contributions on behalf of such a retired employee to a retirement fund which is not a part of the System in an amount not to exceed the amount of the contributions that the public employer would pay to the System on behalf of a participating public employee who serves in the same office.6.
The System may waive for one period of 30 days or less a retired employee’s disqualification under this section if the public employer certifies in writing, in advance, that the retired employee is recalled to meet an emergency and that no other qualified person is immediately available.7.

Either house of the Legislature or the Legislative Counsel Bureau; or(b)
