[excerpt]

This bulletin presents

estimates of the detailed provisions of employer-provided health and retirement plans in private industry in

2009. Under the NCS program, information on the incidence and provision of benefits is published in stages.

An earlier bulletin provided 2009 NCS data on civilian, State and local government, and private industry

workers, on the incidence of (access to and participation in) selected benefits and detailed provisions of paid

holidays, life insurance plans, and some other benefit plans, as well as on employer and employee shares of

contributions to medical care premiums and their average amounts. Similar data for civilian, private industry,

and State and local government workers for March 2010 will be issued later this year.

 

This bulletin of detailed health and retirement provisions will begin including basic health, defined benefit, and

defined contribution tables each year. In addition, each year additional tables for a specific benefit will also be

included. For example, this year additional defined contribution retirement tables in private industry are

included. Next year, additional defined benefit retirement tables in private industry will be included in the

bulletin. Periodically, state and local government benefits are scheduled to be studied.
