ARIZONA STATE SENATE
Fifty-Seventh Legislature, First Regular Session
FACT SHEET FOR S.B. 1058
retirement; reemployment; school resource officer
Purpose
Exempts school resource officers (SROs) from limitations on receiving pensions payments
from the Public Safety Personnel Retirement System (PSPRS) after retiring and subsequently
becoming reemployed.
Background
Statute requires certain conditions to apply if a member of PSPRS retires and then becomes
reemployed in any capacity by the employer from which the member retired within six months
after the date of retirement or becomes reemployed in the same position at any time following
retirement. These conditions include: 1) within 10 days after the retired member is reemployed,
the local board must advise PSPRS in writing of the retired member's reemployment; 2) PSPRS
must not make pension payments to the retired member during the period of reemployment; and
3) any pension payments received by the retired member during the period of reemployment are
considered overpayments and may be subject to repayment. However, these conditions do not
apply in certain circumstances, including if the retired member is hired as a fire inspector or arson
investigator (A.R.S. ยง 38-849).
There is no anticipated fiscal impact to the state General Fund associated with this
legislation.
Provisions
1. Exempts a PSPRS member who is reemployed as an SRO from limitations on receiving
pension payments from PSPRS after retiring.
2. Makes technical changes.
3. Becomes effective on the general effective date.
