Multiple Ohio Systems Coverage

Understanding Multiple Ohio Systems Coverage

An employee who has more than one job may contribute to more than one Ohio retirement system. For each covered job, the appropriate contributions should be sent to the proper retirement system.

Example: A licensed or certified teacher who also drives a school bus would have contributions remitted to SERS for the school bus service and contributions for the teaching service remitted to STRS.

Exception — Coaches and Student Activity Advisors:

  • Coaches or advisors who are licensed or certified teachers: contributions for both coaching and advising are remitted to STRS
  • Coaches or advisors who are not licensed or certified: contributions for both coaching and advising are remitted to SERS
