Clarifying amount of deputy sheriff annual salary increase

SB 193 clarifies how West Virginia deputy sheriffs earn annual salary supplements based on their years of service. It specifies that deputies receive $5 multiplied by each month of service annually (e.g., $60 after 12 months), with existing more favorable supplements remaining in effect. The supplement is only payable after completing a full year of service and counts toward retirement benefits. This bill directly affects deputy sheriffs in West Virginia by standardizing the calculation method for their service-based pay increases.
