This bill amends current law to extend military service credit for compensation purposes to noncertificated employees of school districts, aligning their benefits with those already provided to certificated employees. Specifically, it allows noncertificated employees hired on or after the bill's effective date to receive equivalent years of employment credit for their active military or naval service, similar to the provisions for teaching staff members. However, the credit for such service is limited to a maximum of four employment or adjustment increments.

The bill clarifies that this extension of benefits does not reduce the number of employment or adjustment increments that an employee may be entitled to under existing laws or regulations regarding leaves of absence. This change aims to recognize the contributions of noncertificated employees who have served in the military, ensuring they receive equitable treatment in terms of compensation and employment credit. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
