HB 406 Hawaii House · 2026 Regular Session

RELATING TO DEFERRED RETIREMENT FOR POLICE.

HB 406 establishes a deferred retirement option program for police officers, allowing them to delay formal retirement while continuing to serve. The bill creates a mechanism where eligible officers could postpone their retirement benefits and remain on active duty for additional years. This program directly affects current and future police officers seeking extended service without immediate retirement benefits. The bill was introduced in January 2025 and carried over to the 2026 legislative session for further consideration.
