The bill amends Section 36-10-36 of the General Laws regarding post-retirement employment for retired state employees. It allows retired members to serve as members of any part-time state or municipal board or commission, for which they shall be entitled to reimbursement for mileage and an hourly wage, if applicable, equal to that of full-time members of the board or commission. However, the total amount received in this capacity shall not exceed ten thousand dollars ($10,000) per year.

The bill specifies that retired members can continue to receive their retirement benefits while serving in these roles. It also clarifies that no additional service credits will be granted for any of these post-retirement positions. The act is set to take effect upon passage.
