Health insurance coverage of the unemployed
We use the April 1993 Current Population Survey to examine the health insurance coverage decisions of the unemployed and to simulate the potential effects of the new Kassebaum-Kennedy legislation. After controlling for demographic characteristics, COBRA eligibility raises the probability of health insurance coverage by 0.095, while eligibility for spouse employer insurance increases the likelihood of coverage by 0.318, and eligibility for both in…

Do Health Insurance and Pension Costs Reduce the Job Opportunities of Older Workers
Using a 1991 nationwide survey of employers and 1979, 1983, 1988, and 1993 data from the Employee Benefits Supplement of the Current Population Survey, the authors examine the effects of fringe benefit provision on the decision to hire older workers. They find that higher health insurance costs, in the presence of prohibitions against age discrimination and discrimination in the provision of fringe benefits, adversely affected older workers' empl…
Effects of the Tax Treatment of Fringe Benefits on Labor Market Segmentation
Current federal tax law requires that all workers having the same experience with a firm must receive essentially the same package of fringe benefits in order for those benefits to qualify for preferential tax treatment. The authors argue that this "nondiscriminatory" provision of fringe benefits promotes labor market segmentation by inducing workers to sort themselves across the economy according to their demand for fringe benefits. Several empi…

The Income Tax and Nonwage Compensation
D RAMATIC changes in the division of labor compensation between wage and nonwage payments have occurred since World War II. Voluntary employer contributions to private pension and welfare funds have risen from 1.2% of wage and salary compensation in 1947 to 8.3% in 1979, with half the increase taking place since 1969 (see table 1). Major changes in the composition of the fringe benefit package have also taken place during this period. Employer co…
