Bill > H2786

This bill modifies existing retirement benefit provisions in Massachusetts law to specifically include Compliance Officers at the Department of Fire Services as a special category of public employees eligible for certain retirement benefits. The bill makes three technical amendments to different sections of Chapter 32 of the Massachusetts General Laws, which governs retirement systems. By inserting language referencing "Compliance Officers at the Department of Fire Services" into specific sections of the law, the bill appears to be creating or clarifying a distinct retirement classification for these specific public employees. The amendments suggest that Compliance Officers at the Department of Fire Services will now have special retirement considerations, potentially allowing them to access benefits or retirement options that were previously not explicitly defined for their job classification. This type of legislative change is common when certain public sector roles need to be explicitly recognized within retirement statutes to ensure appropriate benefit treatment.
