Mississippi Deferred Compensation Program

 

Delta State University employees are eligible to participate in the Mississippi Deferred Compensation Program.

 

Employee: This generally includes faculty and staff employees who are working on paid appointments by the University. It generally excludes students or temporary employees. For specific information on who is considered an employee, contact the Human Resources Department. 

 

The Mississippi Deferred Compensation Program makes it possible for employees to save money and reduce their state and federal income taxes. The amounts saved are invested under supervision of the Public Employees’ Retirement System of Mississippi to provide participants a supplemental income upon retirement or a withdrawal settlement upon termination of employment.

 

Employees may enroll in the Mississippi Deferred Compensation Program at any time by contacting the Administrative Office, P. O. Box 105, Jackson, MS 39205-0105 or by contacting the Human Resources Department. Employees wishing to withdraw funds from the account must contact the Mississippi Deferred Compensation Program (toll-free) at 1-800-846-4551.
