What’s in it

AI summary People working as emergency management coordinators or public safety dispatchers will now be part of a special retirement group in the state pension system. This change also applies to the time these employees worked in these roles before the new law started. Employers must confirm the job type for this change to happen without workers having to pay extra money into their retirement accounts.1

Read the official explanation

The bill provides that membership service prior to the effective date of the bill shall be reclassified as protection occupation service without payment of any additional contributions to pay the actuarial costs of the reclassified service if the employer certifies the employment as constituting protection occupation service under the bill. The bill takes effect upon enactment.
