Sick leave in Sigtuna municipality has decreased
Published
Sick leave among employees in Sigtuna municipality has decreased in recent years. This is according to a text published on the website märsta.nu.
According to the text, total sick leave was 9.1 percent in 2020. In 2021 it had fallen to 7.3 percent. Sick leave is measured as the share of planned working time that employees do not work due to illness. The lower the percentage, the fewer days staff are sick.
The text links the decrease to the municipality's centre-right politics. This is thus the author's interpretation of the development, and it is written in a political text. The article does not, however, contain any information about which measures were implemented or how they affected sick leave.
For municipalities, sick leave is an important area, since high absence can affect both operations and costs. How the situation develops in the following years is not shown by the source available.
