    As long as people are worried about getting sick, you will be ok. I reckon people will be getting a lot sicker over the next couple of years so that could be a problem.

    well to be honest its not that easy to say, inside company talk is that it might actually benefit business although reality shows that people are seeking to cut our deemed unnecessary short term benefits. some country specific posts have been cut which leads me to think there is a developing problem.just wondering if anyone else knows anymore?

    Well, people will always need health insurance so there'll be a demand. However, unless you haven't been kept busy at work. (Ie doing less than usual at work when there was a "boom") Then I'd be worried... How long have you been at the company? It tend to go LIFO (Last-In, First-Out).

    Exactly, even some civil servants look like they will be getting the chop.
