Temporary Position
In state government, a temporary position is one that is authorized under s.110.131, Florida Statutes, and is paid from an "other personal services" or an "OPS" account (not a regularly established position). These positions are subject to durational restrictions specified by law. At the local level, a temporary position is one that will not last beyond 6 consecutive months, or a position that is listed in rule 60S-1.004(5)(d), Florida Administrative Code, regardless of whether it will exist beyond 6 consecutive months. Temporary positions are not covered for retirement under the Florida Retirement System.

Termination
This refers to the termination of employment, which occurs when you end all employment with all FRS employers for at least 1 calendar month. Service-based retirees will cancel their retirement if they are reemployed by any FRS employer in the calendar month following their termination date (except that they may retire on disability while on a leave of absence for medical reasons). Disability retirees will cancel their retirement if any employer gainfully reemploys them at any time following their termination date.
