8/17/2006: Graphic: Employers Shifting Health Insurance Costs onto Workers (The Economic Policy Institute)

Excerpt: Fewer employees receive health insurance through their employers now than in the past, as coverage has declined from 61.5% in 1989 to 58.9% in 2000 and down to 55.9% in 2004 (the latest data available). Less well known is the fact that those who still receive employer-provided coverage are now paying a larger share of those insurance costs.
