The average pension per year for an Illinois teacher is $43,164. Most Illinois teachers work for 12 years. That 43k is a 2010 figure. Every year after, there is a 3% cost of living raise, compounded annually, included in the defined benefit.
Defenders of the defined-benefit structure also argue that it can encourage teachers to enter and remain in the profession over the long term, because to maximize their future pension wealth, they must accrue the maximum years of service and reach the top of their districtâs pay scale. In a typical teacher pension plan, retirement wealth accumulates over time and is tied closely to a teacherâs average salary in her last few years on the job (see Figure 2).
