Costs associated for the increase in hazardous duty pay are estimated to be $1.7 million annually. Methodology The calculation is based on approximately 7,115 non-correctional employees who currently receive hazardous duty pay. It is assumed the proposal is intended to include 132 non-correctional employees with the Board of Pardons and Paroles. The fiscal impact would be an additional $42,840 annually, based on the 132 Board of Pardons and Paroles non-correctional employees. Local Government Impact No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
