Providing membership in the KP&F retirement system for certain security officers of the department of corrections and allowing certain service credit purchases of previous KPERS security officer service for purposes of KP&F retirement benefits.

HB 2006 changes retirement eligibility for Kansas Department of Corrections security officers. Starting July 1, 2025, these officers will join the state's police and fire retirement system (KP&F) instead of the general public employees system (KPERS). The bill allows officers to buy back prior service time in KPERS to count toward KP&F benefits, with a 7.15% employee contribution rate on salary. This applies to current and future security officers employed by corrections, affecting their retirement calculations and contributions.
