Sec. 659.305.  AMOUNT OF HAZARDOUS DUTY PAY.
(a)  Except as provided by Subsections (b) and (h), the amount of a full-time state employee's hazardous duty pay for a particular month is  $10 for each 12-month period of lifetime service credit accrued by the employee.
(b)  This subsection applies only to a state employee whose compensation for services provided to the state during any month before August 1987 included hazardous duty pay that was based on total state service performed before May 29, 1987.  The amount of a full-time state employee's hazardous duty pay for a particular month is the sum of:
(1)  $10 for each 12-month period of state service credit the employee finished accruing before May 29, 1987; and
(2)  $10 for each 12-month period of lifetime service credit that the employee accrued after the date, which must be before May 29, 1987, on which the employee finished accruing the last 12-month period of state service credit.
(c)  Repealed by Acts 2007, 80th Leg., R.S., Ch. 1234, Sec. 2, eff. September 1, 2007.
(d)  For purposes of Subsections (a), (b)(2), and (h),  the number of 12-month periods of lifetime service credit that the employee has accrued must be determined as of the last day of the preceding month.
(e)  A state employee is considered to be a full-time state employee for purposes of Subsection (a), (b), or (h) if the employee is a full-time state employee for any portion of the first workday of the month.
(f)  The amount of a part-time state employee's hazardous duty pay is proportional to the amount of a full-time state employee's pay under Subsection (a), (b), or (h).
(g)  A state employee may not receive more than $10 or $12, as applicable, for each 12-month period of lifetime service credit, regardless of:
(1)  the number of positions the employee holds;  or
(2)  the number of hours the employee works each week.
(h)  The amount of hazardous duty pay for a particular month for a full-time correctional officer employed by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice is the lesser of:
(1)  $12 for each 12-month period of lifetime service credit accrued by the employee;  or
(2)  $300.
