To include all West Virginia correctional classifications in the Natural Resources Officer Pension System.

HB 2081 expands West Virginia's Natural Resources Police Pension System to include correctional officers employed by participating public employers. It applies to certified law enforcement officers hired between the bill's effective date and June 30, 2026, who have not already retired under the Public Employees Retirement System. The bill requires these officers to join the Natural Resources Police Pension System instead of the Public Employees Retirement System, with specific rules for transferring their service credits. This change directly affects correctional officers who meet the hiring timeframe and eligibility criteria.
