Musculoskeletal disorders make up a heterogeneous group. Our aim was to describe the variation in social insurance benefits for the most prevalent disorders within this group.
The study was based on the Norwegian labour and welfare administration's registers on sickness benefits and disability benefits.
Of the musculoskeletal disorders, low back conditions are the most frequent causes of sick leave and disability benefits, and account for 11 and 9% respectively. Neck and shoulder disorders are also common causes of sick leave, while osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia are common causes of disability benefits and each account for 5% of all new cases.
The labour and welfare administration should continue to focus on musculoskeletal disorders to prevent long-term sick leave and permanent absence from work.
肌肉骨骼疾病构成了一个异质性群体。我们的目的是描述该群体中最常见疾病的社会保险福利差异。
该研究基于挪威劳动和福利管理部门关于病假和残疾福利的登记册。
在肌肉骨骼疾病中，腰部疾病是病假和残疾福利最常见的原因，分别占11%和9%。颈部和肩部疾病也是病假的常见原因，而骨关节炎和纤维肌痛是残疾福利的常见原因，各占所有新病例的5%。
劳动和福利管理部门应继续关注肌肉骨骼疾病，以防止长期病假和永久缺勤。
