AI Summary

This bill proposes to increase the maximum number of hours that public sector retirees, or "pensioners," can be employed for services after retirement from 960 hours to 1,500 hours. Specifically, it amends Sections 91(b) and 91(c) of Chapter 32 of the Massachusetts General Laws to raise the hour limit from 960 to 1,500 hours. This change would allow public sector pensioners to work more hours in retirement without impacting their pension benefits.
