: Knowledge about sickness absence (SA) and disability pension (DP) among privately employed white-collar workers is very limited. : This study aimed to explore SA and DP among privately employed white-collar women and men using different measures of SA to investigate differences by branch of industry, and to analyse the association between sociodemographic factors and SA. : This was a population-based study of all 1,283,516 (47% women) privately employed white-collar workers in Sweden in 2012, using register data linked at the individual level. Several different measures of SA and DP were used. Logistic regression was used to investigate associations of sociodemographic factors with SA. : More women than men had SA (10.9% women vs. 4.5% men) and DP (1.8% women vs. 0.6% men). While women had a higher risk of SA than men and had more SA days per employed person, they did not have more SA days per person with SA than men. The risk of SA was higher for women (odds ratio (OR)=2.54 (95% confidence interval (CI) 2.51-2.58)), older individuals (OR age 18-24 years=0.58 (95% CI 0.56-0.60); age 55-64 years OR=1.43 (95% CI 1.40-1.46) compared to age 45-54 years), living in medium-sized towns (OR=1.05 (95% CI 1.03-1.06)) or small towns/rural areas (OR=1.13 (95% CI 1.11-1.15)), with shorter education than college/university (OR compulsory only=1.64 (95% CI 1.59-1.69); OR high school=1.38 (95% CI 1.36-1.40)), born outside the EU25 (OR=1.23 (95% CI 1.20-1.27)) and singles with children at home (OR=1.33 (95% CI 1.30-1.36)). .
：私营企业白领员工的病假（SA）和残疾抚恤金（DP）知之甚少。：本研究旨在通过使用不同的 SA 衡量标准来探索私营企业白领女性和男性的 SA 和 DP，以调查行业分支的差异，并分析社会人口因素与 SA 之间的关联。：这是一项基于人群的研究，涉及 2012 年瑞典所有 1283516 名（47%为女性）私营企业白领员工，使用个体水平上链接的登记数据。使用了几种不同的 SA 和 DP 衡量标准。使用逻辑回归调查社会人口因素与 SA 之间的关联。：女性的 SA（10.9%的女性 vs. 4.5%的男性）和 DP（1.8%的女性 vs. 0.6%的男性）多于男性。虽然女性的 SA 风险高于男性，且每个受雇人员的 SA 天数多于男性，但每个患有 SA 的人的 SA 天数并不多于男性。SA 的风险对于女性（优势比（OR）=2.54（95%置信区间（CI）2.51-2.58））、年龄较大的个体（OR 年龄 18-24 岁=0.58（95% CI 0.56-0.60）；年龄 55-64 岁 OR=1.43（95% CI 1.40-1.46）与年龄 45-54 岁相比）、居住在中型城镇（OR=1.05（95% CI 1.03-1.06））或小镇/农村地区（OR=1.13（95% CI 1.11-1.15））、受教育程度低于大学/大学（OR 仅强制教育=1.64（95% CI 1.59-1.69）；OR 高中=1.38（95% CI 1.36-1.40））、非欧盟 25 国出生（OR=1.23（95% CI 1.20-1.27））和单身有子女在家（OR=1.33（95% CI 1.30-1.36））的个体。。
