How can defined benefit (DB) and defined contribution (DC) plans work together to help close the retirement income gap? The second installment of our “DB and DC: Complements, not substitutes” series looks at the experience of public safety workers to help answer this important question.

Key takeaways:

  • Facing longer lifespans and reduced DB benefits, public workers may need additional sources of retirement income.

  • Some public workers, such as public safety workers, could face a greater retirement gap.

  • DC plans and deferred retirement programs could help public workers extend the life of their retirement savings.
