Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the retirement and social security law, in relation to retirement benefits for certain employees; and providing for the repeal of such provisions upon expiration thereof

AI Summary

This bill allows certain employees of the New York State Office of Mental Health, specifically those holding titles such as security hospital treatment assistant and its supervisory roles, to elect to change their retirement plan under the New York State and Local Employees' Retirement System (NYSLRS). Previously, such a choice was generally limited to the first year of employment in these specific roles. This bill permits these employees to choose between an "Age-55 plan" and a "20-year service plan," with this decision being final and irrevocable. The bill also includes a provision for its repeal, meaning it will expire and no longer be in effect after a specific period following its enactment.
