    RETIREE EXTRA-HELP

    Retiree Extra-Help Opportunities

    Many Sonoma County retirees are uniquely qualified to step right into extra-help positions with little or no training and bring valuable knowledge and experience. Departments frequently ask if there are retirees interested in working vacation and leave relief coverage, part-time hours, and specific projects.

    Government Code 7522.56 limits retiree extra-help to 960 hours per fiscal year. The extra-help employment must begin no later than five (5) years after the retirement date. Sonoma County retirees may be re-employed as extra help in the same class, a previously held class, or a lower-level class in the same series.

    Government code prohibits the County of Sonoma from hiring retirees as extra-help if, during the 12-month period prior to the appointment, the retiree received unemployment insurance payments arising out of prior County of Sonoma employment.

    PLEASE NOTE:Effective January 1, 2013, new legislation has set new parameters for individuals returning to County employment on a temporary basis which applies to "retiree extra-help." Prior to submitting your "retiree extra-help" application, please review the "Returning to work after retirement" section of the Sonoma County Employee Retirement Association website found at: https://scretire.org/active-/-deferred/retired/working-after-retirement
