The bill amends Section 36-10-36 of the General Laws regarding post-retirement employment for teachers, administrators, and staff members who have retired under titles 16, 36, or 45. It removes the previous cap on the length of post-retirement employment for these individuals, allowing them to engage in such employment without any limitations on duration. This change enables retired teachers, administrators, and staff members to work as long as they choose without forfeiting their retirement benefits.
The bill also maintains existing provisions for other retired members, ensuring that while they may take on post-retirement roles, they will not accrue additional service credits or contributions during their employment. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
