For this reason, a number of states have passed legislation that will require employers to automatically enroll their employees into an IRA sponsored by the state (an "auto-IRA") and administered by a third party. An extensive literature suggests that automatic enrollment will lead to high rates of participation in auto-IRAs. But this literature is based on auto-enrolled 401 (k) participants who are likely different from uncovered workers in observable and unobservable ways. This paper instead conducts a national survey of uncovered workers to determine how likely they are to participate in a state-sponsored IRA. The results are encouraging and suggest than uncovered workers are likely to participate at rates similar to those in 401 (k) plans at default contribution rates of up to 6 per cent. However, regression analysis suggests that auto-escalation of the default above 6 per cent may result in increased opt-out.
