The amendment strikes the language in the underlying bill and the
associated fiscal impact.
Section 1 of the amendment creates a State-wide Staffing Oversight
Committee under the Department of Public Health, which results in a
cost to the agency for a Staff Attorney II ($110,077 in FY 24 and $160,778
in FY 25), a Health Program Associate ($80,089 in FY 24 and $116,978 in
FY 25), and a Paralegal ($82,000 in FY 24 and $112,067 in FY 25). The
associated cost to the Office of the State Comptroller – Fringe Benefits is
estimated at $116,541 in FY 24 and $166,922 in FY 25. There is a potential
minimal revenue gain to the General Fund in both fiscal years from the
issuance of civil penalties.
This may also result in increased costs to the state associated with pay
and coverage for nurses serving on the Staffing Committee.
Section 2 of the amendment in not anticipated to result in a fiscal
impact to the state in FY 24 and FY 25 as the provisions related to
mandatory overtime do not apply to collective bargaining agreements
in effect prior to June 1, 2027. To the extent the provisions apply in the
out years, the state would likely incur increased staffing costs related to
the prohibition of mandatory overtime as a regular practice. 2023SB-01067-R00LCO07571-FNA.DOCX Page 2 of 2
