(2008)Department of Business Law
- Abstract
- The purpose of this paper is to study the rules of the bill 2007/08: 136 "A
reformed sick-leave process of increased return to work" as related to the
rehabilitation chain. In the interpretation of the material I have used the “practical
legal method” and a minor empirical study has been conducted to find out how
Region Skåne and UMAS adjust their activities to the new regulations.

process. The rehabilitation chain is a part of the package and includes actions with
a tighter schedule.
The employer is still after the new rules playing a central role in the
sick-leave process and must through early and continuous contact with the
workers start the rehabilitation process. The deadlines of the rehabilitation chain
will mean differences for the individual who will need to take greater
responsibility in his or hers rehabilitation process earlier. Försäkringskassan must
now speed up the handling of the various rehabilitation cases and cooperate with
Arbetsförmedlingen earlier.
The deadlines of the Rehabilitation chain means that sick people
must come to care for an assessment earlier. In order to get quick access to health
care in Sweden we have the national health care guarantee for help. I have
concluded that the long queues that are awaiting care can create problems for
individual patients in the rehabilitation chain. In Sweden we have problems with
long-term sick leave, maybe it’s a consequence of that we have not had any
ulterior limit to how long a person can receive cash benefits? (Less)
