Coverage: Data cover the entire sick-insured population in the Czech Republic that is defined by
national legislation.

after 1990 all institutions/enterprises are covered. In 2004, new legislation on sick insurance came
into effect, enforcing tougher conditions on granting sickness allowances. - DNK

- Source: Number of compensated days for illness and sickness (both, the days compensated by the
employer and the days compensated by the National Health Insurance Fund are included), care-taking
of sick family members, injury from work accidents - Health Insurance Fund; number of employed
persons - Estonian Labour Force Survey (State Statistical Office).
Until July 2009 the real number of sickness days per employee is slightly underestimated, as the
first day of sickness was not compensated to the employee. Since July 2009, the first three days of
sickness are not compensated to the employee, therefore the real number of sickness days is even
more underestimated. (Since July, 2009 in the case of sick leave, the employer pays the compensation
from the fourth until the eighth day and the National Health Insurance Fund pays it from the ninth
day onwards.) In the case of care leave or maternity leave, it is paid by the National Health
Insurance Fund as of the first day of leave. Exceptions are illness or injury of a pregnant woman,
in which case the National Health Insurance Fund pays the compensation from the second day onwards.
As a result of an increase in the number of unemployed persons - (according to Statistics Estonia,
the number of unemployed persons increased by 26% when comparing three quarters between 2009 and
2010) - the number of insured persons in employment was decreased by 7% in 2010 compared to 2008. As
a result of both the reduction of the number of insured persons in employment and the change in
payment of benefits for incapacity for work, the number of certificates of incapacity for work
decreased by 25% in 2010 and the number of certificates per insured person in employment decreased
by 20%.

Coverage: Data refer to work absenteeism due to illness of the members of the public sickness fund
(PSF). It should be noted that such cases have to be recorded only if their duration exceeds three
workdays. Therefore, figures are an underestimation.
Estimation method: Results are extrapolated on the basis of data collected for 12 sample workdays,
which are annually monitored with the respective absenteeism rates projected onto an annual average.
The number of days of inability to work per member of the Statutory Health Insurance is based on the
following calculation: Days of inability to work divided by the annual average number of members of
the Statutory Health Insurance of the respective group of insured persons (here: Employees
obligatorily insured in the Statutory Health Insurance without pensioners, students, practical
trainees and persons in early retirement). - HUN

- Source of data: From 1980 to 1995 this was calculated by Nofer Institute of Occupational Medicine,
Lodz. They stopped this work in 1995. Since 2006 the data on absenteeism has been published by the
Social Insurance Institution which has analysed sick-leave documentation. They routinely calculate
an average absenteeism per person who was ill (and absent at work) in analysed year. The later
values are higher than for the period 1980-1995 but suit the increasing trend. - PRT

not all absence is covered by sickness cash benefit. Not included are all cases up to 14 days. This
