The plan provides retirement benefits for full time employees. Employees are in one of the three categories; Plan 1, Plan 2 or Hybrid plan. Plan 1 employees are employees hired prior to July 1, 2010 or hired after July 1, 2010 with prior VRS credit and vested (5 years of service) by January 1, 2013. Plan 2 employees are those hired on or after July 1, 2010, rehired with no prior service credit in VRS, or hired before July 1, 2010 and not vested by January 1, 2013. Hybrid Plan employees are employees hired after January 1, 2014. Public Safety employees eligible for enhanced hazardous duty benefits are exempt from the Hybrid Plan.All full time employees contribute 5 percent of their income on a pre-tax basis to VRS. The county also contributes a percentage of all full time salaries to VRS. The percentage is determined biannually by VRS.The Hybrid Plan is a combination of a defined benefit (pension) plan, and a defined contribution (retirement savings) plan. Of the 5% mandatory contribution, 1% goes to the defined contribution plan. Employees can voluntarily elect to contribute up to an additional 4% to the defined contribution plan, and receive an employer match up to 2.5%.Participants of VRS are vested once 5 years of creditable service are earned.Plan 1 Retirement Benefit - The retirement benefit is determined by your age, highest 36 consecutive months of salary and years of service. VRS Plan 1 participants are eligible for full retirement benefits at age 65 with at least five years of service or at age 50 with at least 30 years of service. Participants may also retire as early as age 55 with at least five years of creditable service or as early as age 50 with at least 10 years of creditable service.Plan 2 Retirement Benefit - The retirement benefit is determined by your age, highest 60 consecutive months of salary and years of service. VRS Plan 2 participants are eligible for full retirement benefits when the normal Social Security retirement age is reached and with at least five years of service credit, or when age and years of service equal 90. Example: Age 60 with 30 years of creditable service. Participants may also retire early (at a reduced benefit) at age 60 with at least five years of service credit.Hybrid Retirement Benefit - The retirement benefit is determined by your age, highest 60 consecutive months of salary and years of service. VRS participants are eligible for full retirement benefits when the normal Social Security age is reached and with at least five years of service credit, or when age and years of service equal 90. Participants may also retire early at age 60 with at least five years of service credit. The percentage used to calculate the retirement benefit is lower than what is used for Plan 1 and Plan 2 employees. Employees use the defined contribution plan (retirement savings) to supplement their benefit.Hazardous Duty Positions - Whether you are considered a Plan 1 or Plan 2 employee, VRS participants that are in hazardous duty positions are eligible for full, unreduced retirement at age 50 with at least 25 years of creditable service or age 60 with at least five years of creditable service. Those age 50 with at least five years of creditable service are eligible for an early, reduced retirement. Employees who have at least 20 years of hazardous duty service at retirement may be eligible for a hazardous duty supplement, payable from the time of retirement until their normal social security age.Note: Part Time Regular employees DO NOT have retirement benefits through VRS.Deferred CompensationThe County provides employees an additional opportunity to save for retirement. Nationwide Retirement Solutions and COVA are the two providers for the 457(b) deferred compensation. Employees have the ability to make voluntary contributions towards their retirement on a pre-tax basis through payroll deduction. Nationwide also offers a Roth plan on an after tax basis for those who are interested. Group Term Life InsuranceThe County provides basic group term life insurance to employees through VRS and underwritten by Minnesota Life Insurance Company. The coverage is provided at no cost to the employee. In the event of natural death, the benefit is equal to the employee's pay (rounded to the next $1,000), and then doubled. For accidental death, the benefit is equal to the employee's pay (rounded to the next $1,000), and then quadrupled. There is no maximum limitation on this benefit.Optional Life InsuranceThis program allows employees to elect up to four times their pay (not to exceed a maximum of $750,000) of additional life insurance. This plan also allows employees to purchase coverage for a spouse and/or children. A spouse's benefit is up to one-half the employee's benefit amount. Coverage for children is $10,000, $20,000, or $30,000 per child. Some levels of coverage may require Evidence of Insurability and may be subject to limitations. Optional Life Insurance is 100% paid for by the employee on an after tax basis. Premiums for the employee and spouse are based on the age of the insured person and increase with age.
