New Employee Orientation

As part of the county’s “new hire” process, Health Benefits provides you with a welcome packet, which includes an informative booklet about KCERA and its valuable retirement benefits. In addition to the booklet, KCERA mails all new employees a ‘Welcome Letter’. This letter will provide you with your personal KCERA member key so that you can register for your Member Portal. The Portal is a valuable tool that will allow you access to your KCERA record. You can watch an online presentation of KCERA’s portion of the New Employee Orientation by clicking on the following link.

If you have questions not answered by the online presentation, please consult the Member Handbook or contact the KCERA office.
