Welcome To the Arkansas Public Employees Retirement System

your retirement system

The Arkansas Public Employees Retirement System was created by Act 177 of 1957. The System originally provided only for the retirement of State employees but through the years has added county employees, municipal employees, college and university employees, non-teaching public school employees, and other non-state employees.

APERS’ mission is to provide income to retired members, to survivors, and to disabled members of the system. To this end, the System prudently invests all contributions received, monitors reporting by participating employers, maintains records, and disburses monthly benefit checks to all those entitled.

GETTING LEGAL ADVICE
APERS staff will often get questions about legal issues such as "What is a Power Of Attorney and should I get one?” and “What type of Will or Trust should I have?” The APERS staff is neither authorized or qualified to answer those types of questions. To help our membership find the answers to those types of questions we're providing the following link to Arkansas legal Services Partnership which "provides resources and links that can help you find the legal help you need."
