A 2680 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Provides for longevity payments for certain state employees

This bill creates annual longevity payments for state employees in managerial or confidential roles who have completed 12, 17, or 22 years of continuous service in the executive branch. Employees with 12+ years receive a $1,500 payment annually, those with 17+ years receive both the 12-year and 17-year payments ($1,500 each), and those with 22+ years receive all three payments ($1,500 each). Payments are made as lump sums in April each year to full-time employees (pro-rated for part-time staff) and require a performance rating above "Below Minimum." The policy directly affects eligible state employees in specific classified roles, providing incremental cash awards based on tenure milestones.
