HB 1611 seeks to amend sections of the Texas Government Code to provide juvenile correctional officers and caseworkers employed by the Texas Juvenile Justice Department (TJJD) eligibility for service credit under the custodial officer designation within the Employees Retirement System of Texas (ERS). This eligibility ensures access to benefits from the law enforcement and custodial officer supplemental retirement fund. The bill outlines the process for certification, contribution collection, and eligibility for retroactive service credit, subject to specific timelines and conditions.
