Conditional probability for return-to-work (RTW) for employed persons with a new episode of sickness benefit commenced 1 January 2010–31 December 2013, by sick leave duration week 3–52. 1a show the likelihood of fully terminating an episode of sickness benefit (n = 951,112) and 1b show the likelihood of partially terminating an episode of sickness benefit (n = 1,165,219), contingent on that sick leave being ongoing in the beginning of each week. Note: Employed persons with sickness benefit that ended day 180 of the sick leave were not categorised as completed, as many of the employees who terminated sick leave on that day got a retraction of sickness benefit. As a result of that they were assessed to have insufficiently reduced work ability in relation to any job the labour market had to offer.
