This is the FY 2022 original appropriation bill for the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation. It appropriates a
total of $28,416,400 and caps the number of authorized full-time equivalent positions at 150.00. For benefit
costs, the bill maintains the current appropriated amount for health insurance at $11,650 per eligible FTP,
extends the holiday for the employer's sick leave contribution rate for another year, and restores funding for
the employer's unemployment insurance contribution rate. The bill also provides funding for the equivalent of
a 2% change in employee compensation for permanent state employees.
