Mississippi HB45 requires employers to contribute a percentage of contract workers' compensation into the Public Employees' Retirement System.

Mississippi HB45 amends the Mississippi Code to mandate that employers who contract with individuals for services typically performed by regular employees must contribute a certain percentage of the total compensation paid to these contract workers into the employer's accumulation account of the Public Employees' Retirement System. This percentage mirrors the employer's contribution rate for regular employees. The bill specifies that this requirement applies to contractual employees or independent contractors performing services for or on behalf of the employer.
