Background:
Hennepin County has established a Deferred Compensation Plan for the benefit of its employees, to permit employees to defer a portion of their income that can supplement their other retirement benefits. Employees choosing to participate, elect to save by designating a portion of their paycheck for their deferred compensation account. The county has contracted with Fidelity Investments Tax Exempt Services Company and Voya Retirement Insurance and Annuity Company to act as recordkeepers and maintain investment accounts for those employees participating in the Plan.

The county's Deferred Compensation Committee oversees the county's Plan. The committee oversees the investment strategy and objectives of the Plan; the investment portfolio; administration of the Plan by the Human Resources Benefits Division; and continually evaluates the Plan considering the many competing and valid interests of Hennepin County and its diverse employee population.
