WELCOME TO OUR WEBSITE!
The Middlesex County Retirement Board is pleased to provide our active and retired members, their families, and the public, access to information about the Middlesex County Retirement System.
It is our intention that the website be used as a helpful retirement planning tool, as a reliable source of important explanations of the public employee retirement law, and a way to report current news about retirement benefits.
Originally created by an Act of the Legislature in 1911, the Middlesex County Retirement System is the fourth largest of the 106 retirement systems in the Commonwealth. We provide retirement, disability and survivor benefits to approximately 5,000 retirees and 10,000 active employees of 31 Towns and 39 Districts and Authorites within Middlesex County. We're happy that you have visited and we encourage you to browse often!
