Retirement benefits
South Carolina Public Employee Benefit Authority (PEBA) offers a choice of retirement plan options to employees.
State Optional Retirement Program (State ORP)
Non-Membership – For bus drivers and substitutes only
Optional Non-Membership Authorized by the Retirement Act - For International teachers only
To select your option, you will complete a Retirement Entry Enrollment form with your new hire paperwork. This form is only used to provide your information to PEBA. You are not selecting a retirement plan option at this time. Please provide a valid email address.
Once your information has been entered, you will receive an email from PEBA notifying you that you must make your selection.
Please be sure to visit the link provided in this email to make your selection. If your intent is to either elect non-membership or enroll in the ORP plan, you MUST respond to the PEBA enrollment email to make that selection. Otherwise, you will default enroll into the SCRS system.
