SB 2545 Rhode Island Senate · 2026 Regular Session

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

SB 2545 adds the positions of administrator of community confinement and home confinement coordinator to the state retirement system. This change means employees in these correctional roles will now qualify for retirement benefits previously available only to other state correctional staff. The bill amends existing retirement law to explicitly include these two job titles in the eligibility list. The change takes effect upon the bill's passage and does not alter retirement rules for other positions.
