RETIREMENT

The AAFES Retirement plan is a Defined Benefit plan.  The amount of your pension is determined by a formula that takes into account three things:
-
Your High-3 average compensation 
- Your credited service
-
Your Social Security Benefit

Associates contribute a very small amount, 0.8%, of their salary towards this plan.  Almost all of the cost of the Retirement Plan is borne by AAFES.
