Abstract | dc.description.abstract | Background: In Chile, the number of sick leaves due to mental health problems
has systematically increased in recent years. Aim: To perform an analysis of sick
leaves due to mental problems managed by the Fondo Nacional de Salud (FONASA)
during 2008. Material and Methods: Analysis of all sick leaves awarded during
2008 for mental or behavioral problems, that were managed at FONASA. A negative
binomial regression, was performed to predict the effects of different variables on the
total duration of sick leaves. Results: A total of 546,477 sick leaves were awarded to
198,752 individuals (2.27 per subject). The mean duration of each leave was 15.6
days. Summing all leaves, the lapse off work was 98 ± 96 days (median 65 days).
Women had longer leaves than men. The type of medical leave, occupation, working
for private or public institutions, economic activity and diagnosis were signifi cantly
associated with duration of time off work. Conclusions: Sick leaves for mental problems
are prolonged and related to gender and socioeconomic variables. | es_CL |
