Fear of Losing Health Insurance Keeps 1 in 6 Workers in Their Jobs: Survey by Colleen Fleiss on May 6, 2021 at 11:44 PM
In the United States, 16% of adult workers are staying in jobs they might otherwise leave out of fear of losing their employer-sponsored health insurance, revealed a new West Health-Gallup survey of more than 3,800 U.S. adults.
But the most likely to stay in a job they would rather leave are those workers in households earning less than $48,000 a year roughly 3 in 10 (28%) say they will not leave and risk losing their health benefits. Workers in lower income households are nearly three times more likely to stay in an unwanted job than are workers living in households earning at least $120,000 per year.
