| dc.description.abstract | The number of disability exits has been increasing in recent years, raising questions
both about the well being of affected individuals, and about how to finance the related
disability pensions. Using a longitudinal database owned by the Swedish National
Social Insurance Board, this study analyzes the risk to exit into disability at a certain
age, assuming that people remained in the labor force until that age. The estimates show
that it was more than 7% higher for each 100 days of sickness, but was lower with each
additional sickness spell. It was also higher for increments of 1% in the regional
unemployment rate. These results suggest that more resources should be allocated for
prevention, improving working conditions and designing the tasks of each job so as
avoid overuse of employees working capacity | swe |
