dc.description.abstractThis study analyses sickness absence in selected European countries. We suggested and applied three sick‑leave measures: global sickness absence rate, frequency rate, and absolute crude absence rate. To calculate the rates, open access data from Eurostat, the OECD, and the WHO were used. On the one hand, assessing sickness absence is a challenge in spite of accessible numbers of people and days of absence in public and employer registers. Simultaneously, a detailed understanding of sickness benefits and sick‑pay schemes is needed to elucidate cross‑country differences in sick‑leave rates. The long‑term dynamic trajectory (1970–2020) and regional differentiation effects on absenteeism among countries were considered. Using correlation coefficients and one‑way analysis of variance, a robustness check was performed, and the limitations of the proposed approach to measuring absenteeism were presented. The results evidence that the aforementioned indices present a unique and valid approximation to evaluate and monitor the state of sick absence and inequality in national policies.en
dc.description.abstractW artykule dokonano obszernej analizy absencji chorobowej pracowników w krajach Europy. W tym celu skonstruowano i przetestowano trzy miary absenteizmu: globalny wskaźnik absencji, wskaźnik częstości absencji i surowy absolutny wskaźnik absencji. Do obliczenia wskaźników wykorzystano dane pochodzące z baz mających otwarty dostęp, m.in. Eurostatu, OECD, WHO. W artykule uwzględniono długookresową trajektorię (1970–2020) oraz wpływ zróżnicowania regionalnego na absencję chorobową pracujących. Wykorzystując współczynniki korelacji i analizę wariancji, przetestowano odporność miar oraz przedstawiono ograniczenia proponowanego podejścia. Wyniki dowodzą, że proponowane wskaźniki stanowią unikalne narzędzie służące ocenie i monitorowaniu stanu absencji chorobowej w krajach europejskich. Co więcej, miary dają pewną elastyczność i możliwość ich stosowania w kontekście porównywalności i dostępności danych statycznych. Wybór indeksu powinien być jednak determinowany celem badań nad absencją chorobową, ze względu na zróżnicowany potencjał interpretacyjny i aplikacyjny mierników.pl
