AI Summary

This bill aims to ensure pension parity for County Jail and Lockup employees. It proposes to amend Chapter 32 of the General Laws to classify additional roles at the Dukes County sheriff's department jail facility or lockup facility, such as special sheriffs, assistant superintendents, and booking/evidence/transport supervisors and officers, as Group 4 members for the purposes of the state's pension system. This would put these employees on par with other County correctional facility employees in terms of their pension benefits.
