House Sponsors: KLINGLER. Senate Sponsors: BOMKE Short description: PEN CD-SERS-CREDIT FOR LAYOFF Synopsis of Bill as introduced: Amends the State Employee Article of the Illinois Pension Code. Provides that an employee may establish eligible creditable service for up to 2 years spent on layoff, under certain circumstances. Requires payment of both employee and employer contributions, plus interest. Specifies that the employee contribution and interest shall be based on the date the employee returns to employment after the layoff. Effective immediately. PENSION NOTE (Pension Laws Commission) The fiscal impact of HB 0233 cannot be calculated, as the amount of outstanding service that would be purchased is unknown. The fiscal impact is expected to be minor, as employee and employer contributions, plus interest (from the date of reemployment to the date of payment), are required. HOUSE AMENDMENT NO. 1. Adds the additional requirement that the applicant, at the time of the layoff, had attained certified status under the rules of the Department of Central Management Services.
