Working While on Disability
As a disability pensioner, you are allowed to earn additional pay from other employers and still receive your Metro disability pension as long as your outside earnings do not exceed the following amount:
Your Metro salary at the time you became disabled,
with pay plan adjustments consistent with the current pay level
MINUS
Your disability pension benefit
from Metro and Social Security
If you exceed the allowed amount, your future pension payments will be reduced dollar for dollar until the excess payment is recovered.
For this formula, your salary is the amount you were earning at the time your disability occurred, plus across-the-board pay increases you would have received if you had continued working. Your salary does not consider other pay increases you might have received from promotion or annual increments.
