Workers w/ Employer-Sponsored Insurance in the 3/97 Current Population Survey

Adult Civilian Wage Workers: Probability of
Being Covered by Employer-Sponsored Insurance

Adult civilian wage workers are non-military workers aged 18 or older who work for a wage. The definition excludes workers who work without pay or who are self-employed in unincorporated firms as well as very young workers and military personnel.
Workers can be covered by employer sponsored insurance in two ways: through their own employers or as a dependent of some other worker (usually a spouse or a parent) who is covered through an employer. In this chart book, workers who have coverage from any employer are counted as having ESI.
In the charts which follow, the height of the bar represents the probability that a worker with the characteristics was covered by Employer-Sponsored insurance (ESI) in 1996.
