January 30, 2006 (The Editor’s Desk is updated each business day.) Health care plans and establishment size in 2005Participation in employer-provided health plans varied markedly by establishment size in 2005. For example, 65 percent of workers in large establishments (defined as having 100 or more workers) participated in employer-provided medical plans in 2005. In contrast, only 43 percent of workers in smaller establishments (those with less than 100 workers) participated in employer-provided medical plans. These data are from the BLS National Compensation Survey program.
