Abstract

Die Untersuchung der Kosten von arbeitsbedingten Erkrankungen und Invalidität aus gesamtwirtschaftlicher Sicht befasst sich einerseits mit dem Zusammenhang zwischen Belastungen am Arbeitsplatz und Erkrankungsgeschehen und ermittelt andererseits die durch Belastungen am Arbeitsplatz verursachten Kosten. In einem ersten Schritt werden die Kosten der arbeitsbedingten Krankenstandsepisoden geschätzt. Letztere setzen sich aus einer direkten Komponente (Kosten der Krankheitsbehandlung) und einer indirekten Komponente (Produktionsausfall und Ressourcenverlust) zusammen. In einem zweiten Schritt werden längerfristige Kosten angeschnitten, die sich in einer Beeinträchtigung der Erwerbsfähigkeit niederschlagen. Dabei werden strukturelle und finanzielle Aspekte im Bereich der Invaliditäts- und Berufsunfähigkeitspensionen untersucht.
