Due to 2023 Wisconsin Act 4, county correctional officers (jailers) who are categorized as general employees will become protective occupation employees under the Wisconsin Retirement System, unless they opt out. Learn about who is affected, decision deadlines, and what this means for a jailer’s WRS benefits.
Your WRS account information is confidential, and no one can receive information about or make changes to your account unless authorized. You can authorize another person to make changes to your account by submitting a financial power of attorney document to ETF.
