Employers may complete and submit the electronic Transfer of Employment form online.

This electronic form:

• Allows employers to notify MOSERS of the new agency/org numbers and the employee’s start date with the new agency.
• Eliminates any MOSERS paperwork for the employee (unless they wish to decrease optional life insurance coverage or change their beneficiary information).

Employees must complete a New Member Packet if they are:

• Returning to state employment and have missed an entire calendar month of payroll.
• Transferring from the Department of Conservation or a state college/university (except Linn Tech and Lincoln University), which are not covered by MOSERS’ life insurance plan.

As the Hiring HR Rep
If you are the hiring human resource representative, you may complete the electronic Transfer of Employment form if the employee has not missed an entire calendar month of payroll and is transferring to a MOSERS covered position. Since the employee’s optional life insurance coverage will remain the same, no other form is required to continue coverage (if applicable).

As the Previous HR Rep
If you are the previous human resource representative, please complete a Termination of Employment form and submit it to MOSERS (no change in procedure).

Full-Time and Part-Time Positions
It is not uncommon for a state employee to work simultaneously in a full-time (benefit eligible) position at one agency and a part-time (non-benefit eligible) position at another. This is a reminder that:

• The employee will receive one day of service credit for each day worked in the benefit eligible position.
• Retirement contributions must be paid for both the full-time and part-time positions. When calculating the employee’s retirement benefit, MOSERS will combine the salary of both positions.
• Basic life insurance and long-term disability (LTD) contributions should be made for the full-time position only (not part-time).
