Certain services are required to be excluded from Section 218 coverage. Some services,
however, may either be excluded or covered under the State's Section 218 Agreement
at the State’s option (see SL 30001.356 and SL 30001.357 for details).
When an absolute or retirement system coverage group is covered under an Agreement,
the services of all employees who are members of the coverage group are covered unless
they are required to be or are optionally excluded from coverage under the State’s
Agreement.
