Benefit Information: Working for the U.S. Park Police offers a comprehensive benefits package that includes, in part, paid vacation, sick leave, holidays, life insurance, health insurance benefits, premium pay, and eligibility for retirement with 20 years of service at age 50, or 25 years of service at any age.
- Sick Leave - Employees earn 104 hours of sick leave per year that accrues without limit. Sick leave not utilized at the time of retirement will be added to the annuitant's length of service when calculating their retirement benefit. 12 weeks of paid parental leave is also granted to eligible employees.
- Annual Leave - Employees earn annual leave at the following rates: 13 days per year for the first three years of service, 20 days after three years of service, and 26 days every year after 15 years of service. Employees may carry over a maximum of 240 hours (30 days) of annual leave from one calendar year to the next;

- 1) A defined-benefit plan (annuity) calculated by applying the average of the highest three years of earnings (high-3) to the employee's length of service. Police annuitants receive 1.7% of their high-3 for the first 20 years of their service, and 1% for each additional year. This translates to 34% of the high-3 for police officers retiring after 20 years of service, and 39% if retiring after 25 years.
- 2) Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) is a defined-contribution pension (savings account). Employees may contribute up to the IRS maximum, and the agency will match any contributions up to 5% of base salary.
- 3) Access to social security. As United States Park Police Officers are able (and required) to retire before they are eligible to apply for social security, a FERS supplement is paid to compensate until age 62.
