Bill Summary

For legislation relative to post-retirement earnings of public retirees. Public Service.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend the existing law (Chapter 32) by removing the restrictions on the number of hours a public retiree can earn after retirement. Specifically, it seeks to strike out the language that limits the aggregate number of hours a public retiree can work in a calendar year to 960 hours. This change would provide more flexibility for public retirees to continue working and earning post-retirement income without the previously imposed hourly cap.
