DIGEST OF SB 340 (Updated March 14, 2006 5:00 pm - DI 102)
Salary and PERF protection for state employees. Provides that the state's salary and wage schedules must provide that an appointing authority is not required to reduce the salary of an employee who is demoted, unless the appointing authority determines that the salary reduction is warranted for disciplinary reasons or other good cause. Establishes a process to withdraw state employees from the public employees' retirement fund (fund) and allow certain state employees to retire when the employees' particular departmental, occupational, or other classifications are terminated from state employment as a result of: (1) a lease or other transfer of state property to a nongovernmental entity; or (2) a contractual arrangement with a nongovernmental entity to perform certain state functions. Establishes the funding sources for the amounts that the state is required to contribute to the fund for the purchase of up to 24 months of creditable service needed by a terminated employee who elects normal or early retirement. Authorizes the state to purchase and maintain an insurance policy that provides coverage that supplements coverage provided under a United States military health care plan.
