eBay To Offer Health Insurance

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the crazy-grown-up-job-world dept.

Logic Bomb writes "EBay has announced it will be offering group health coverage for "full time eBay merchants". Anyone who grosses over $1000/month in sales -- at least a whopping 80,000 users in good standing -- will be eligible to buy into a typical "employee" health plan. This is a big first in the Internet world. Full details from the LA Times." And the LA Times, trying to cop a pose from the NY Times, reqs a login.

    slightly OT: slashdot should do this, anyone with 1,000 karma or more gets health insurance, or protection from negative karma forever on topic: what does it cover you for though, if your making $1,000 a month on eBay expect alot of RSI, bad back etc....
