353H.002 POLICY.

It is the policy of the legislature that special consideration should be given to the pension benefits for employees of governmental subdivisions who devote their time and skills to assisting the community and the courts as probation officers or serving the public and public safety partners as telecommunicators. Because this work can be hazardous or high stress, special provisions are made by this chapter for earlier retirement and larger retirement annuities than are provided to members of the general employees retirement plan under chapter 353. The additional costs of these benefits are borne initially by the employees.
