text_A: Costs of disability pensions are steadily growing in Western countries, mainly in Europe and the United States. It was reported that, in the UK, expenditure on disability pensions accounted for 0.9% of gross domestic product (GDP) in 1980; two decades later it had reached 2.6% of GDP. A link between increased time away from work due to illness and an increased risk of the need for a disability pension later in life has been reported in several studies.
text_B: Could a program that encourages employees to take time off from work more readily, and for less-serious illnesses, end up being financially viable, if using sick days from work could potentially be linked to less serious disability later in life?
NO.
