The County values the service of all of its employees, both full-time and part-time. Since part-
time employees are not covered by VRS, the County has elected to establish a Longevity

benefits as more fully explained in this section.
A. Scope of Program
All regular, part-time employees of the County will be covered by the Program provided

benefits. Salaried Board Members are not eligible for participation in this program.

dismemberment payments for the accidental loss of one or more limbs or of
eyesight.
2. Annuity Program: Based on length of service in the County, part-time employees
will be provided with an annuity program. The Board will contribute an annual
amount according to the following formula:

b. 10 - 14 continuous years of County service - seven percent of annual
salary
c. 15 - 19 continuous years of County service - nine percent of annual
salary.

order to again become qualified for participation under this subsection.

employees who meet the age and service criteria for retirement under VRS and have been
employed a minimum of five (5) years with Albemarle County shall be paid upon their retirement
