PBGC-Insured Participants by Participant Status (1980-2000)
Multiemployer Program
-
Although the total number of multiemployer plan participants that PBGC
covers has grown, the percentage of these participants that are active workers
fell from 76 percent in 1980 to 51 percent in 2000.
-
The increase in the number of retired participants was slightly larger
than the increase in the number of separated vested participants.
