E-Mail Points to Jacksonville, FL City Hall Denying Pension Mistake
Florida Times-Union 
Jan. 12, 2010
Excerpt: More than 30 corrections officers sued the city last month for being denied access to the pension plan because they didn't pass a physical -- mostly for having high blood pressure.... If employees didn't pass a physical, they were put in the Social Security system, rather than the city pension plan -- arguably the most lucrative benefit available to Jacksonville government employees. The city has since dropped the physical exam requirement. Keeping employees in Social Security makes a significant financial difference to the city -- both while employees are working and after they retire.
