Health insurance
While 30% of documented male workers said they had some form of health insurance, only half that fraction of undocumented men (15%) had such insurance. In large part, this difference reflects the fact that just 5% of undocumented males had health insurance through their employer, whereas
17% of documented male workers in the study said they had
employer-provided insurance. Among women, 36% of those who were documented had health insurance, but only 11% of the undocumented had coverage. Just 1% of undocumented female workers had health insurance through their employer, as compared with 13% for documented female workers.
