1Employer assumes all risks and expenses of providing the benefit.
2The categories are based on the average wage for each occupation surveyed, which may include workers with earnings
both above and below the threshold. The average wages are based on the estimates published in the "National
Compensation Survey: Occupational Earnings in the United States, 2009." See Technical Note for more details.
NOTE: Because of rounding, sums of individual items may not equal totals. Dash indicates no workers in this category or
data did not meet publication criteria. For definitions of major plans, key provisions, and related terms, see the "Glossary of
Employee Benefit Terms" at www.bls.gov/ncs/ebs/glossary20092010.htm.
