VA employees are covered by the Federal Employees Retirement System
(FERS). FERS is a three-tiered retirement plan composed of 1)

and 3) Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) which is a 401K-type plan
How is the pension funded? VA employees hired after January 1, 2014
automatically contribute 4.4% of their salary each pay period and
the VA contributes 8.3% of the employees salary each pay period for
a total annual contribution percentage equal to 12.7% of the
employees salary
Similar to the 401(k) savings plans widely available in the private
sector, the TSP allows employees to tax defer a portion of their
income each year, subject to the requirements of the Internal
Revenue Service. For calendar year 2014, employees under the age of
50 may contribute up to $17,500, while those over age 50 are
eligible to make catch-up contributions that allow them to defer up
to $23,000
The Federal Government also provides an automatic basic
contribution (1% of salary) and up to 4% of salary in matching
contributions, depending on the amount of the employee
contribution
For retired military personnel, these benefits are in addition to
full monthly retirement pay or pension
In addition to FERS, VA provides health care insurance coverage for
retired personnel
