Minnesota HF3461 aligns benefit rights for state and local government employees taking legislative leaves of absence.

Minnesota HF3461 amends state statutes to ensure that officers or representatives taking a leave of absence for legislative service retain the same benefit rights as if they had not taken the leave. This includes seniority status, efficiency rating, vacation, insurance benefits, sick leave, and other benefits. The appointing authority must not subtract the leave period when determining the employee's length of service. The bill also aligns pension and retirement benefit rights with those of local government employees.
