Q1 2023 Insurance Labor Market Study Indicates Continued Growth

The latest iteration of the Semi-Annual U.S. Insurance Labor Market Study, conducted by The Jacobson Group, the leading provider of talent to the insurance industry, and Aon plc, a leading global professional services firm providing a broad range of risk, retirement and health solutions, found 90% of respondents intend to maintain or increase staff in 2023.

“Overall, recruiting remains challenging and retention is a key focus for 2023,” said Gregory P. Jacobson, co-chief executive officer of The Jacobson Group. “Carriers are adapting to meet evolving business needs, while staying competitive in terms of employee expectations and preferences. The vast majority of insurers plan to continue offering flexible work accommodations, with a quarter of companies sharing most employees remain fully remote.”

“Although the insurance industry is still addressing financial challenges related to inflation, rising reinsurance costs and volatile equity markets, most companies have a positive outlook for revenue growth in 2023,” said Jeff Rieder, partner at Aon and head of Ward Benchmarking. “Insurance companies are expected to continue hiring throughout 2023 to support their growth goals and meet customer service expectations.”

Some of the study’s key findings include the following:

  • In the next 12 months, 67% of insurance carriers plan to increase staff and 23% plan to maintain their current staff size. Technology, claims and underwriting roles are the industry’s greatest need.
  • Seventy-nine percent of companies expect to grow revenue during the next 12 months; this is 6 points higher than the July 2022 study.
  • Currently, 92% of companies offer a hybrid work model to their employees. Throughout the next six months, 72% of companies expect their employees in the office at least one day a week, with just 4% expecting employees in the office every day.
  • Nearly all roles remain moderately difficult to fill, with technology, actuarial and underwriting roles considered the most challenging.
  • If the industry follows through on its plans, we will see a 1.67% increase in employment during the next 12 months.
