Federal Firefighters Families First Act

This bill, S 2473 (Federal Firefighters Families First Act), adjusts pay and retirement calculations for federal firefighters to align with municipal firefighter standards. It directly affects federal firefighters by requiring pay computations to include overtime hours worked as part of regular duty when calculating retirement benefits, and establishes a maximum 60-hour regular workweek. Key mechanisms include amending federal pay codes (5 U.S.C. § 5545b) to add overtime to retirement calculations and setting a 60-hour weekly cap for scheduled hours. These changes apply to retirement benefits for firefighters separating after 60 days post-enactment.
