Plain-English Summary

Federal firefighters who take time away from their jobs would have more flexibility in how their retirement benefits are calculated, allowing breaks in service to not completely reset their years of experience toward retirement eligibility. This change would make it easier for firefighters to return to work after personal leave, military service, or other interruptions without losing credit for the time they previously served. The measure affects federal employees in firefighting positions and aims to improve retention by protecting their retirement security.
