SB 2600 Rhode Island Senate · 2024 Regular Session

AN ACT RELATING TO PUBLIC OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES -- RETIREMENT SYSTEM -- CONTRIBUTIONS AND BENEFITS

This bill expands the state retirement system to include the administrator of community confinement and the home confinement coordinator within the Department of Corrections. The primary change is adding these two specific roles to the list of positions eligible for retirement benefits under the existing correctional officer provisions. By amending the relevant state law, the measure ensures that employees in these new or expanded positions receive the same retirement coverage as other correctional staff.
