Improved Federal Law Enforcement Retirement: Overtime Inclusion

This act aims to enhance retirement benefits for federal law enforcement officers by including previously unpaid overtime hours in their average pay calculation due to pay caps. This means officers who frequently work beyond regular hours will receive higher pensions, encouraging top talent to remain in service. The act also introduces a tax credit for a lump-sum payment made to benefit from these changes.
Key points
Inclusion of uncompensated overtime hours in the retirement annuity calculation for federal law enforcement officers.
