An Act to ensure fairness in retirement benefits for certain employees of the Department of Correction

HD 2041 updates the definition of eligible positions for retirement benefits within the Department of Correction. It specifically adds "correctional program officer A/B, C, D, or equivalent or successive titles" (and other Group 4 titles) to the list of roles qualifying for these benefits. This change directly affects correctional officers who have held these specific positions or equivalent Group 4 roles for 10 years or more. The bill modifies existing law to ensure these employees receive retirement benefits based on their tenure in these designated positions.
