I work over 40 hours a week and Manager the swing shift. So I am considered management. The girls in the office and some of the others are recieveing insurance benefits When I had asked for insurance, The top dog said yes but I wil lhave to pay for it out of my own pocket the full premium. When the others don't pay the company pays. Is this legal for me to be singled out?. The guys I manage don't even get a choice for insurance.

Gem is correct. Contrary to popular belief, this practice is completely legal as long as your employer distinguishes who'll be covered by "employment class" and not by arbitrary or capricious reasoning (such as "I like you -- you can have insurance; but I don't like that other worker, so he can't").

Generally, no. I understand that the State of Hawaii has that requirement, but have not heard of other states doing so. There is no federal law requiring provision of health insurance.

Benefits can be totally contingent on department and job description.
There is no law in place that keeps a company from doing this.
Employee health insurance can be incredibly expensive and your boss may not be able to afford to insure you.
Good luck

Something doesn't sound right here, contact your state dept of ins. or dept of labor.

Never. It's not mandatory.
