(a) The purpose of this section is to provide notice to an applicant for concurrent employment in a public employee position that the concurrent employment might affect the employee's retirement benefits and to allow the employee and employer an opportunity to consider an alternative method of employment that would allow an enhanced retirement benefit for the prospective employee.
(b) If an applicant for concurrent employment in a public employee position provides information to a prospective public employer that the applicant is a current public employee and is enrolled as a member of a reciprocal system, then the prospective employer shall notify the applicant that it may be in the applicant's best interest to contact his or her current retirement system regarding the legal status of retirement benefits that may result if the applicant is employed by two (2) or more state-supported retirement systems.
(c) The failure of a state-supported retirement system to notify a prospective employee under this section does not create a legal obligation on behalf of the state-supported retirement system or a legal right on behalf of the prospective employee.
