Only regular earnings are reportable to MERS and subject to retirement contributions.
DO NOT include overtime, special pay, emergency pay, bonuses, lump sum payments, or one-time payments, such as payment of accrued leave, when paying contributions.

Improper reporting of earnings can result in a miscalculation of retirement benefits.
