Bill > S1826

This bill amends Section 91 of Chapter 32 of the Massachusetts General Laws to eliminate post-retirement earnings restrictions specifically for retired police officers performing police detail work. Currently, retired police officers receiving a pension may face limitations on how much they can work or earn without negatively impacting their pension benefits. Under this proposed legislation, a retired police officer employed by a city, town, or municipal entity to perform police details or other police-related duties would be exempt from these typical earnings and hours restrictions. This means that such retired police officers could work full-time on police details without risking a reduction in their pension benefits, effectively providing more flexibility for retired law enforcement professionals who wish to continue working in public safety-related roles after retirement.
