|
2 | | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
|
3 | | represented in the General Assembly:
|
4 | | Section 5. The Illinois Pension Code is amended by |
5 | | changing Section 3-116 as follows:
|
6 | | (40 ILCS 5/3-116) (from Ch. 108 1/2, par. 3-116)
|
7 | | Sec. 3-116. Examination and emergency service. A police |
8 | | officer whose duty is suspended because of disability may be
|
9 | | summoned to appear before the board, and to submit to an |
10 | | examination
to determine fitness for duty. The
officer shall |
11 | | abide by the board's decision. If a police officer retired
for |
12 | | disability, except one who voluntarily retires after 20 years' |
13 | | service,
is found upon medical examination to have recovered |
14 | | from
disability, the board shall certify to the chief of |
15 | | police that the member
is no longer disabled and is able to |
16 | | resume the duties of his or her
position. In case of emergency, |
17 | | a disabled police officer
may be assigned to and shall perform |
18 | | such
duty without right to compensation as the chief of police |
19 | | or chief officer
of the municipality may
direct. This Section |
20 | | does not apply to a police officer who has attained the age of |
21 | | 60.
