Massachusetts H2903 increases retiree work hour and pay limits for state employees.

Massachusetts H2903 amends the General Laws to increase the maximum allowable work hours for state retirees from 1,200 to 2,000 hours annually and raises the cap on earnings from $15,000 to $150,000 per year. This change affects state retirees who choose to work beyond their retirement, allowing them to earn more while continuing to receive their retirement benefits.
