SUPPLEMENT OF MILITARY PAY AND ADDITIONAL LIFE INSURANCE BENEFITS FOR EMPLOYEES
OF COMMONWEALTH OR POLITICAL SUBDIVISIONS (§ 44-93.1)

A. In addition to the paid military leave provisions of § 44-93, the

members called to federally funded military duty in an amount necessary to bring
their total salary, inclusive of their base military pay, to the level earned at
the time they were called to federally funded military duty. The employer may
also, in its discretion, continue to provide any health insurance and other
existing benefits to such officers and employees.

B. In addition to any other benefit provided by law, if an employee of the
Commonwealth or of any political subdivision has been called to federal active
duty services under Title 10 of the United States Code, the Commonwealth shall
provide an additional death benefit in the amount of $ 20,000 to be paid if the
employee is killed in action in any armed conflict while serving with any
reserve component of the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, or Coast Guard or
with any unit of these respective services of the United States.
