Fewer company sponsored health require no contribution from employees for their health insurance premium. The number of non-contributory health plans, fell from 27% to 18% from 1998 through 2004. Employers footing the bill for workers' dependent premiums are becoming rare. Family plan enrollment dropped from 19% to 15% over the same time frame. Workers in smaller companies - under 50 employees - were much more likely to have no-contribution plans.
