An Act relative to credible service positions
This bill amends Massachusetts law to include call firefighters, emergency medical technicians (EMTs), and police dispatchers in the definition of "creditable service" for public retirement purposes. It directly affects these public safety workers who are compensated for their service, ensuring their time in these roles counts toward retirement benefits. The key provision adds these specific positions to the list of roles that qualify for creditable service under Chapter 32 of the General Laws. The change requires that individuals must have been paid for their service in these roles to receive the credit. This is a straightforward policy adjustment to expand retirement eligibility for certain public safety personnel.
