New Jersey A1028 ensures PFRS members on federal or state military duty receive death or disability benefits.

New Jersey A1028 amends the Police and Firemen's Retirement System (PFRS) to ensure members on federal or state military duty remain eligible for death or disability benefits. If a member is killed or injured while on active duty, they will be considered an active PFRS member, maintaining their eligibility for benefits. The bill also outlines specific benefit calculations for members who die within a year of service or have no surviving widow, widower, child, or parent.
