An act relating to reemployment of retired law enforcement officers; amending s. 121.091, F.S.; authorizing retired law enforcement officers to be reemployed in specified positions after meeting specified termination requirements; authorizing such retired law enforcement officers to receive both compensation and retirement benefits after a specified period; providing that such retired law enforcement officers may not renew membership in the Florida Retirement System, except as otherwise provided; amending s. 122.16, F.S.; revising the timeframe during which a former employee is prohibited from receiving both a reemployment salary and retirement benefits; conforming provisions to changes made by the act; providing an effective date.

AI Summary

This bill amends Florida statutes to authorize retired law enforcement officers to be reemployed in positions that qualify for the Special Risk Class, such as school resource officer roles, after meeting certain termination requirements. These retired officers can receive both compensation from their employer and retirement benefits, but they cannot renew their membership in the Florida Retirement System. The bill also revises the timeframe during which a former employee is prohibited from receiving both a reemployment salary and retirement benefits, reducing it from 12 to 6 months.
