Easy Pay electronic contribution payment system now available via web (updated 6-6-2007)
We have
removed past issues of “News to Use” which are more than a year old, to make
sure information you find on our website is current and reliable. We
encourage you to use the Employer Online
Guide from within the Employer Portal as your source for PERSI
information. Much of the information from the old newsletters is now
presented in the Employer Online Guide,
but outdated information is removed or brought up to date. If you don’t find the information you are looking for, use the
“Suggestion Box” on the Main page to send us an email and we will find it
for you and modify the index so it’s easy to find the next time.

Workshops
If you would like to schedule a workshop for your employees, please call the
