After being out of work for several months my husband finally got a job in January. He's just got his first 90 days in and signed up for their health insurance plan because he was told he had to have it. He doesn't want it and certainly doesn't want to pay $30 a week for it when we're still trying to dig ourselves out of this hole we're in. So my question is, can they legally require him to pay for health insurance he doesn't want? He works in an auto parts manufacturing plant, by the way.
--------------------
Yes, they can require it as a requisite of employment.- the insurance company probably either requires them to have 100% coverage as a matter of course or the company gets a discount for 100% coverage - it's all about having the largest risk pool possible.
