The prevalence of negotiated health, insurance, and pension programs in the printing industry was first studied by the Bureau as of July 1, 1954. Information gathered on these plans was restricted to those financed entirely or in part by the employer. Plans financed by workers through union dues or assessments were excluded. No attempt was made to secure information on the kind and extent of benefits provided or on the cost of plans providing such benefits.
