AN ACT RELATING TO PUBLIC OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES -- RETIREMENT SYSTEM -- CONTRIBUTIONS AND BENEFITS

HB 5021 expands the state retirement system to include two specific public officer roles: the administrator of community confinement and the home confinement coordinator. It amends the section of the General Laws that outlines retirement contributions and benefits for correctional officers. This change means these two positions will now be covered under the same retirement provisions as other correctional officers within the department of corrections.
