FISCAL ANALYSIS



ASSUMPTION



The Joint Committee on Public Employee Retirement (JCPER) has reviewed this proposal and has determined an actuarial study is not needed under the provisions of section 105.660, subdivision (5).



Officials with the Public School Retirement System, Public School Retirement System of St. Louis and Kansas City Public School Retirement System assume no fiscal impact to their agency.



Officials with the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education assume local school districts would likely see increased administrative costs. It is unknown to what extent administrative costs would increase; the increase being contingent upon the level of participation in job-sharing by classroom teachers statewide.



Oversight assumes the local school districts could absorb the administrative costs based on the responses received from the Public School Retirement System of St. Louis and Kansas City Public School Retirement System as well as the Public School Retirement System.

FISCAL IMPACT - Small Business



No direct fiscal impact to small businesses would be expected as a result of this proposal.



DESCRIPTION



Current law requires employment of at least seventeen hours per week in order to be considered eligible for the classroom teacher "job-sharing" program.



This act seeks to alter the aforementioned requirement from a minimum of seventeen hours per week to a minimum of fifteen hours per week.



This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
