Bill > SB2383

This bill modifies the employment regulations for retired commissioned officers at the Texas Department of Public Safety by creating an exemption to certain existing employment restrictions. Specifically, the bill adds two new subsections to Section 411.007 of the Government Code that allow retired commissioned officers who previously worked as commissioned officers in the department and are now retirees of the Employees Retirement System of Texas to be rehired by the department without being subject to the standard employment limitations that typically apply to retirees. The bill clarifies that these new provisions will only apply to persons hired on or after the effective date of the Act, which is set for September 1, 2025. By creating this exemption, the bill provides more flexible employment opportunities for retired commissioned officers who wish to return to work for the Department of Public Safety, potentially helping the department retain experienced personnel and address staffing needs.
