This happens very commonly. I haven't heard of any court cases challenging it with any traction. John Deere did the same a couple years ago. Unfortunately we have a healthcare system that can easily bankrupt you if you don't have insurance, and that insurance is most commonly tied to employers. Workers may be able to pay for COBRA coverage, but beyond simply being much more expensive (covering the employer portion plus up to a 2% admin fee), they would be paying with post-tax dollars. It's quite punitive to not participate through an employer.
