Thereafter, at the completion of every additional 12 months of creditable state service, the employee will receive a payment of $100 for every year of creditable state service not to exceed a payment of $3,000.00. The current statute does not provide for Judges to be included in longevity pay.

Service Awards
The state provides awards to appropriately recognize employees for ongoing service to state government. A commemorative certificate and gift are present to employees at the completion of five years of service and at each increment of five years service thereafter.
