H 2558 Massachusetts House · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

An Act to amend retirement benefits for certain employees of the Department of Youth Services

This bill modifies the retirement system for specific workers within the Massachusetts Department of Youth Services. It directly affects employees in Bargaining Unit 8 by including them in Group 4 of the state's contributory retirement plan. The change is achieved by updating the relevant state law to explicitly list these workers alongside other similar staff members. This adjustment ensures that these employees receive retirement benefits under the same framework as their counterparts in the system.
