AN ACT to amend the retirement and social security law, in relation to
accidental disability retirement for deputy sheriffs
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. Paragraph 3 of subdivision e of section 556 of the retire-
ment and social security law, as added by chapter 165 of the laws of
1995, is amended to read as follows:
3. A pension of two-thirds of his or her final average salary;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, A DEPUTY SHERIFF SHALL RECEIVE A PENSION OF THREE-
QUARTERS OF HIS OR HER FINAL AVERAGE SALARY IF SUCH DEPUTY SHERIFF IS
EMPLOYED BY AN EMPLOYER THAT HAS ELECTED TO PROVIDE SUCH BENEFIT TO
DEPUTY SHERIFFS. The payment of such pension shall be subject to the
provisions of section [three hundred] sixty-four of this chapter.
§ 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
FISCAL NOTE.--Pursuant to Legislative Law, Section 50:
This bill would allow employers to elect to provide improved acci-
dental disability pensions to deputy sheriffs who are covered by the
provisions of Article 14-B of the Retirement and Social Security Law.
The benefit for an accidental disability would be three-quarters of
final average salary minus workers' compensation. The current benefit is
two-thirds of final average salary minus workers' compensation.
If this bill is enacted during the 2022 legislative session, we antic-
ipate that there will be an increase in the annual contributions of
electing counties of 0.2% of the compensation of their deputy sheriffs
for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023. In future years, this cost
will vary as the billing rates and salary of the affected deputy sher-
iffs change.
In addition to the annual contributions discussed above, there will be
an immediate past service cost of approximately 1.0% of the compensation
of such deputy sheriffs which will be borne by the electing county as a
one-time payment. This estimate is based on the assumption that payment
will be made on February 1, 2023.
