S 1663 Massachusetts Senate · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

An Act relative to court officers injured on duty

This bill amends Massachusetts law to clarify how payments for court officers injured on duty should be treated. It specifies that these injury-related payments must be made at the same times and in the same way as regular salaries. By doing so, the legislation ensures that these funds are considered part of the officer's standard compensation for all legal purposes. The change directly affects court officers who receive benefits due to work-related injuries.
