NRS 286.450  Rate of contributions by public employer.

      1.  The employer contribution rate must be:

      (a) The matching contribution rate for employees and employers that is actuarially determined for police officers and firefighters and for regular members, depending upon the retirement fund in which the member is participating.

      (b) Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2, adjusted on the first monthly retirement reporting period commencing on or after July 1 of each odd-numbered year based on the actuarially determined contribution rate indicated in the biennial actuarial valuation and report of the immediately preceding year. The adjusted rate must be rounded to the nearest one-quarter of 1 percent.

      2.  The employer’s portion of the matching contribution rate for employees and employers must not be adjusted in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) of subsection 1 if:

      (a) The existing rate is lower than the actuarially determined rate but is within one-quarter of 1 percent of the actuarially determined rate.

      (b) The existing rate is higher than the actuarially determined rate but is within 1 percent of the actuarially determined rate. If the existing rate is more than 1 percent higher than the actuarially determined rate, the existing rate must be reduced by the amount by which it exceeds 1 percent above the actuarially determined rate.
