Complete·5/22/25

Amends Delaware Code to prevent dual compensation for elected or appointed officials who are also employees.

The Delaware bill amends Title 29 of the Delaware Code to establish clear policies and procedures ensuring that taxpayers do not pay individuals more than once for coincident hours of work. It mandates that elected or appointed officials who are also employees must have their pay reduced on a prorated basis for any hours or days missed due to their official duties. The immediate supervisor or school board must verify the time records of such officials at least once each pay period. The State Auditor is required to conduct an annual audit of these time records to prevent dual compensation.
