1805.1 In addition to cash compensation, the Retirement Board may provide a benefits package (to the extent allowed by District of Columbia law) which is competitive in the labor market and provides employees with security against unexpected events and lifestyle protection.

1805.2 In lieu of benefits that the Retirement Board does not offer, the Retirement Board may provide cash compensation, where possible, to be competitive with relevant markets offering more robust benefit packages.
