HD 2448 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

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

This bill updates retirement benefit eligibility to include all Bargaining Unit 8 employees in the Department of Youth Services, expanding coverage under existing retirement provisions. It specifically amends a section of law that previously listed other employee categories (like "supervising prison camp officer") by adding this new group. The change directly affects Bargaining Unit 8 employees by extending them the same retirement benefits previously available to other covered staff. No new benefits are created - only eligibility is expanded for this specific workforce.
