MHSP Reemployment

Agency Information on Reemployment


Each of the plans administered by PERS has provisions for the reemployment of retirees receiving a benefit under such plan. In addition, some plans have regulations which offer further guidance on the reemployment of such individuals. Detailed information for each plan is available as referenced below.

Mississippi Highway Safety Patrol Retirement System (MHSPRS)

There is no provision for limited reemployment where the retiree can draw both MHSPRS benefits and be employed in an MHSPRS covered position. Thus, if an MHSPRS retiree returns to employment covered under the MSHPRS, the member will have his retirement benefits terminated and will again become a contributing member of the plan.

Note however, that an MHSPRS retiree can be employed by a PERS employer in a non-MHSPRS position and continue to draw MHSPRS benefits.
