Retirement

Prince William County participates in the Virginia Retirement System (VRS).  Enrollment is mandatory for all full-time employees.  Depending on an employee's date of hire and previous VRS service, they are enrolled in one of three plans: Plan 1, Plan 2 or the Hybrid Plan.  All employees contribute 5% of salary to the Plan.  

Hazardous duty employees (Police, Fire and Rescue, Sheriff, and Jail Officers) are also eligible for enhanced benefits under the VRS.  There is an additional Supplemental Retirement Plan from Prince William County for these employee groups.

The County also offers 401a and 457 defined contribution plans.  These voluntary programs offer pre-tax contributions and a wide array of investment options.  There is a County match on employee 401a contributions (set by the Board of County Supervisors each fiscal year).

Eligible employees may also receive a health insurance credit at the time of retirement.  This additional money is a monthly lifetime benefit that reimburses retirees for health insurance premiums.
