disablement may receive various benefits. It isn't possible to eliminate redundancy.

disability of 50% or more,

employee there and

The numbers given for the years 1990-2000 refer to the persons receiving social benefits due to

the total number of persons in Greece that receive social benefits due to disablement.

Source: Social Insurance Administration (formerly named State Social Security Institute).
Before 2011: All individuals 16-66 years old, assessed with 75% invalidity, receiving disability
benefits during a given calendar year. Based on counts of individuals receiving benefits in December
of each year. As of 2011: Age group 18-66 years old.
IRL
Source: Department of Social Protection. Refers to the number of persons in receipt of Disability
Allowance, Invalidity Pension and Disablement Pensions. Disability Allowance is paid to persons aged
between 16 and 66 who have an injury, disease or physical or mental disability that has continued or
may be expected to continue for at least one year.
Invalidity Pension is a weekly payment to people who cannot work because of a long-term illness or
disability and are covered by social insurance (PRSI). To qualify one must have been incapable of
work for at least 12 months and be likely to be incapable of work for at least another 12 months or
be permanently incapable of work.
Disablement Benefit is a benefit under the Occupational Injuries Scheme. It can be paid to persons
who suffer a loss of physical or mental faculty because of an accident at work, an accident
travelling directly to or from work, or a prescribed disease contracted at work. Payment is only
made where the level of disablement following the accident or disease is assessed at 15% or more.
The apparent drop in numbers in 2006 is due to recipients of Invalidity Pension having been
transferred to State Pension (Contributory) upon reaching 66 years of age from 2006.

Note: The jump in trend between 1989-1990 may be due to the influx of refugees from the region due
to the civil war in former Yugoslavia at that time, which led to an increase of persons receiving
social/disability benefits.
