Bill Summary

For legislation relative to a service based retirement option for Group 1 and Group 2 career employees. Public Service.

AI Summary

This bill allows Group 1 and Group 2 career employees in Massachusetts who have been members of the state retirement system for at least 30 years to retire and receive a service-based retirement allowance, regardless of their age. The employee must agree to fully fund their pension benefit upfront, using their vacation time or personal allowance, as determined by the State Retirement Board to reach a 75% pension benefit (for 30 years of service) or an 80% benefit (for 32+ years of service). This provides these long-serving employees with an alternative retirement option outside of the standard age-based requirements.
