2018 Senate Bill 1225 / Public Act 482

Permit privatized non-core school service workers to collect both a pay and a pension check

Introduced in the Senate

Nov. 28, 2018

Introduced by Sen. Mike Shirkey (R-16)

To permit a retired school employee hired by a private contractor to perform school custodial, food, or transportation services to continue collecting a school pension the individual earned doing similar work as a direct school employee. Current law restricts this for retirees who performed "core" services, that is, teaching. The bill would clarify that the non-core services it specifies are not subject to that restriction.
