Q3 2026 Insurance Labor Market Study Now Open for Participation

The third-quarter 2026 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 (NYSE: AON), a leading global professional services firm, is now open through July 26. The study has provided valuable insights on insurance labor trends for more than 15 years and is regarded as an accurate predictor of the industry’s staffing outlook.

"In January, half of insurers were planning to maintain their staff sizes in 2026, indicating relative stability,” said Jeffrey Blair, senior vice president of executive search and business development at The Jacobson Group. “As the industry continues to adapt to shifting expectations and business environments, the results of our mid-year study will be a valuable resource for informing talent plans moving into 2027.”

“Although many companies are not growing revenue at the same levels as the past few years, investments in talent to support analytics, data governance and artificial intelligence transformation are expected to be a priority,” said Jeff Rieder, head of performance benchmarking for the Strategy and Technology Group for Aon.
