Reintegration & medical force majeure: what does the government agreement say about long-term sick people?
20 February 2025
The government agreement outlines the government's plans to restore the country's financial health. Getting more people into work is one of the key pillars. The aim is to reverse the annual increase in long-term incapacity for work. The government emphasizes the shared responsibility of all involved parties in this regard. A "Back-To-Work-barometer" will be created as a monitoring instrument. The goal is improvement at all levels: preventing health problems, preventing absenteeism due to health problems, and returning to work as quickly as possible in case of absenteeism. The aim is to increase the income difference between work and benefits, making working more attractive.
