Subcommittee approves DPS hiring-bonus repayment policy retroactive to Nov. 15, 2024
Summary
The personnel subcommittee approved a request from the Department of Public Safety to allow pro‑rata repayment of hiring bonuses by employees who leave before one year, retroactive to Nov. 15, 2024; OPM recommended the change.
At a legislative personnel subcommittee meeting, members approved a Department of Public Safety request to amend its hiring-bonus policy so employees who leave before completing one year must repay the bonus on a pro‑rata basis. OPM staff recommended the change.
Bart Angel presented the item and told the committee the department asked that the repayment rule apply retroactively to the plan’s original approval date of Nov. 15, 2024. The committee moved, a second was recorded and the chair called a voice vote; members answered “aye” and the motion carried.
The committee did not record a roll-call vote in the transcript, and the motion record did not identify who moved or seconded the motion on the public audio. The change was described as an administrative adjustment to the Department of Public Safety’s special compensation and recruitment-incentives plan and was recommended by OPM staff for committee approval.
Ending: The committee adjourned after the vote.
