	Welcome to the Hazardous Duty Retirement Counseling Workshop. Our goal is to provide the same information in this setting that we provide in our traditional counseling sessions. Therefore, this is not a verbatim recital of each and every retirement provision. Rather, this is a general explanation of the most important retirement issues and considerations. If you fall within our target audience-current hazardous duty state employees transitioning directly from state employment into retirement-we hope to provide you with the information you will need to make informed retirement decisions. While this workshop is meant to be helpful and informative, nothing contained in it should be considered a promise or contract. The applicable retirement statutes, regulations, and decided cases that construe them are the governing law. The Retirement Services Division reserves the right to revise, change or revoke without notice the information, rules and procedure detailed in this workshop.
