The Public Employees’ Retirement System of Mississippi (PERS) is proud to serve all its members who have dedicated their careers to public service for the state of Mississippi.
But many of those in PERS have also sacrificed to serve the nation as a whole through time in the military.
To honor the time given to military service, PERS provides eligible members who are veterans with four years of service credit at no cost plus the option to purchase additional credit under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA).
