(a) Actuarial reductions for each class of service are those which would be used if all service from which the member has retired or is retiring was credited in that class.
(b) A person retiring with less service than is required in the applicable formula to compute average salary shall have benefits based upon the average salary for the months for which credit was established.
(c) The procedures to implement these principles are prescribed in the document entitled "Computation of Proportional Retirement Benefits." This document, which is to be considered a part of this section for all purposes, may be obtained from the executive director, Employees Retirement System; P.O. Box 13207; Austin, Texas 78711-3207. The formulas apply only to computation of benefits in programs or systems in which the member does not meet the length-of-service requirement for retirements.
