The plan is funded by joint contributions made by MSD and the employee.

Both MSD and employee contributions are set by the legislature and are subject to change. Vesting is achieved after 5 years of participation.
Employee savings plans (401(k)) and 457
MSD makes it easy for employees to plan for their retirement by offering a savings program that allows employees to accumulate savings through individual before-tax payroll contributions. MSD does not contribute any matching funds to either of the above plans. MSD’s financial involvement is assisting in the administration of both plans. Employees are eligible to participate in this plan from the first day of employment.
Mission Square Retirement (formerly ICMA-RC) and Kentucky Deferred Comp IRAs
Mission Square Retirement and the Kentucky Public Employees Deferred Compensation Authority both offer Traditional and Roth IRAs to MSD employees through individual payroll contributions.

New employees receive a prorated amount of Personal Days, after 60 days of employment, for the balance of the twelve (12) month period ending November 30. Upon termination, employees will either be paid for the excess personal days earned over those used or will owe MSD the excess of personal days used over personal days earned. (Personal days earned is determined by proration over a twelve (12) month period.)
Holidays
An annual schedule of MSD’s eleven (11) paid holidays is posted each January. (Refer to Policies and Benefits Manual for complete listing.)

Employees may request vacation time in accordance with current guidelines. The maximum amount of accrued vacation is 320 hours.
Other Benefits
Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs)
MSD offers two flexible spending accounts that allow employees to pay for certain dependent day care and health care expenses with pre-tax earnings. The dependent day care account may be used to pay for child care providers, day care facilities and certain other expenses related to the care of an employee's dependent children while he or she is at work. It may also be used to pay for care provided to an individual with a physical or mental handicap who is the employee's dependent, regardless of age. The health care account may be used to pay for IRS-allowable medical, dental, or vision expenses that are not covered by a health insurance policy. Coverage is effective 60 days after date of hire.
Health Savings Account (HSA)
MSD offers a health savings account to coincide with the medical High Deductible Plan (HDHP). The account allows employees to pay for certain health care expenses not covered by the insurance policies. The HSA may be used to pay for IRS-allowable medical, dental, or vision expenses that are not covered by a health insurance policy. Employees are eligible to participate in this plan 60 days after date of hire.
Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA)
The Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 (FMLA) entitles qualified employees up to twelve (12) weeks of unpaid leave per 12-month rolling period for the birth or adoption of a child, placement of a child for foster care, to care for a spouse or an immediate family member with a serious health problem or a serious health condition of the employee. The full text version of MSD’s Family and Medical Leave is available in the Employee Policy Manual.
Paid Parental Leave (PPL)
Paid Parental Leave of absence is offered to non-probationary, full time and part time employees who meet FMLA eligibility guidelines. The purpose of PPL is to enable MSD employees to care for and bond with a newborn or a newly adopted or newly placed child. This policy runs concurrently with Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) leave, as applicable.
Workers’ Compensation
MSD insures all employees for Workers’ Compensation. The administration of Workers’ Compensation benefits will be in accordance with the Kentucky Revised Statutes.
Wellness Program – “Exercising Wellness”
MSD’s Wellness Committee continues to expand its workplace wellness initiatives by providing employees with tools and incentives that will improve their health, help reduce medical costs and boost worker productivity.

Employee Assistance
MSD offers a confidential counseling and referral service through an outside agency for employees and their families. This program also sponsors seminars on a variety of topics.
