Am I Hit By The Earnings Test After Reaching Full Retirement Age?

Hello. If I take a job after I reach FRA which pays much less than what I earned in my lifelong job of more than 35 years, do I run the risk of reducing my monthly benefit?
Thanks for your guidance. Arthur

No, Arthur. The Earnings Test ends the day you reach full retirement age. best, Larry
