HB 2036 Arizona House · 57th Legislature - First Regular Session

ASRS; temporary personnel service

HB 2036 allows Arizona State Retirement System (ASRS) members who serve in active military duty or work as temporary federal personnel to receive up to 60 months of credited service toward retirement. It requires employers to make contributions based on the member's prior salary during the service period, without penalty upon return to work or in cases of service-related disability or death. The bill directly affects ASRS members who are Arizona National Guard/reserve members, military personnel, or federal temporary employees. Key provisions include employer contributions for the service period, inclusion of military/service time in retirement calculations, and protection against reimbursement requirements for those contributions.
