- CDA White Paper, Worker Disability: A Growing Risk to Retirement Security

Overall the study revealed that most workers are not prepared for the financial consequences of an income-limiting disability. While the majority of workers rated their ability to earn a living as the most important contributor to their long-term financial security, three times greater than those who rated retirement savings as number one – two in three workers do not even think about disability when they discuss their “financial planning.” Download the complete study.
