Economic Report: Nonunion workers more likely to have frozen pension plans.

Newly-released data by the Bureau of Labor Statistics reveals that it is down right cold in the world of pension plans. Nineteen percent of private sector workers with traditional pensions and 10 percent of government employees with traditional pensions are in frozen plans. And if you are a new employee, good luck getting on board. Nonunion workers are more likely to have frozen plans at 24 percent compared to union workers at 10 percent.
