Refused sickness and activity compensation – effects on income and health

(RiR 2018:9)

The findings of the Swedish National Audit Office’s latest audit indicate that the rules for sickness and activity compensation should be changed, so that more people can receive compensation. According to Auditor General Stefan Lundgren, the current rules are far too strict, bearing in mind the negative consequences a refusal has on individuals’ health and finances.
