More and more employers are demanding that workers who smoke, are overweight or have high cholesterol shoulder a greater share of their health care costs, a shift toward penalizing employees with unhealthy lifestyles rather than rewarding good habits.But, the NYT has it all wrong, as usual.
It is not a penalty.
It is a reflection of the increased risk these people pose.
Charge them more and more until they pay for their true risks to the system.
