Bill Summary
Relative to the conversion of certain disability retirements of public employees. Public Service.
AI Summary
This bill amends Section 8 of Chapter 32 of the General Laws to allow members who have retired under Sections 6 or 7 (disability retirements) to convert their retirement benefits to a normal retirement allowance under Section 5. The conversion is done through a written application and allows the member to have the retirement allowance calculated based on their creditable service and regular compensation, subject to certain limitations. The member may also elect to have the allowance paid under different options, but cannot receive benefits under both the conversion and Section 9 (accidental death benefits). The bill provides flexibility for members to choose the retirement option that best suits their needs.
