(A) Except as otherwise specified in division (B) of this section, the amount of benefits payable to a claimant for any week with respect to which the claimant is receiving a governmental or other pension, retirement or retired pay, annuity or any other similar periodic payment which is based on the previous work of the individual, shall be reduced by an amount equal to the amount of the pension, retirement or retired pay, annuity or other payment which is reasonably attributable to that week, except that the requirements for this division shall apply to any pension, retirement or retired pay, annuity, or other similar periodic payment only if both of the following apply:

(1) The payment is under a plan maintained or contributed to by a base period employer or chargeable employer.

(2) In the case of a payment under a plan not made under the "Social Security Act," 42 U.S.C. 401 et seq., or the "Railroad Retirement Act of 1974," 45 U.S.C. 231 et seq., or the corresponding provisions of prior law, services performed for such employer by the individual after the beginning of the base period, or remuneration for such services, affect eligibility for, or increase the amount of, such pension, retirement or retired pay, annuity, or similar payment.

(B) If a claimant has made a contribution to social security pursuant to the "Social Security Act," 42 U.S.C. 401 et seq., and that claimant is receiving a retirement payment pursuant to that act, the claimant's weekly benefit shall not be reduced by the amount of that retirement payment because the claimant contributed to social security.
