Bill Summary

For legislation to provide creditable service for certain teachers for retirement purposes. Public Service.

AI Summary

This bill amends the General Laws of Massachusetts to allow certain teachers who were members of the teachers' retirement system or the State-Boston retirement system and had their employment terminated due to a reduction in force to receive creditable service for the period of their unemployment. To receive this credit, the teacher must have subsequently been employed as a teacher in a governmental unit and paid into the Annuity Savings Fund an amount equal to the deductions that would have been withheld had they continued in service, plus interest. The maximum creditable service allowed under this provision is 4 years, and the teacher must have completed at least 10 years of membership service before receiving this credit.
