About LASERS - Board of Trustees

A 13-member Board of Trustees oversees LASERS operations. Louisiana law allows the board to adopt rules and regulations in administering LASERS programs and benefits. Board meetings are open to the public.

Six seats are filled by active members. Three seats are held by retirees. Four positions are ex officio, held by the State Treasurer, Commissioner of Administration, Chair of the Louisiana Senate Retirement Committee, and member of the Louisiana House of Representatives Retirement Committee appointed by the Speaker of the House, or their designees.

Trustees serve four year terms. No Trustee may serve more than three consecutive terms. Trustees are required to file financial disclosure reports with the Board of Ethics.
