Vesting refers to your right as the employee to receive the retirement benefit from the University, regardless of whether or not you remain employed at the University of Pittsburgh. In other words, vesting is referring to how long you have to be participating in a Pitt retirement plan in order to keep your University benefit. The Vesting Period under the Defined Contribution Program (Contributory Program) is approximately three years with a 1000 or more hours worked each calendar year.

The plan may require participants to complete a number of years of service to be entitled to the employer contributions. The vesting schedule states the number of years of service and the vested percent for each year until the schedule reaches 100%. If the vesting schedule is based on a six year graded formula of 20% for 2 years of service up to 100% for 6 years of service, a participant with 4 years of service would be 60% vested.

Isotonic solutions cause no swelling or contraction of the tissues with which they come in contact, and produce no discomfort when instilled in the eye, nasal tract, or other body tissues. See similar questions...

The tonicity of the solution is less than that of the cells. When this occurs, water enters into the blood cells causing them to swell and finally burst, with the liberation of hemoglobin, or water invasion of the body’s cells. If this invasion is beyond the body’s cells, then water intoxication results, with convulsions and edema. See similar questions...
