Extra support during sickness absence
Additional support if you fall ill or get injured
We are ready to help and support you so that your health will improve as quickly as possible. Naturally, we want your quality of life to be the best it can be, and we also want to help you keep your current job or return fully or partially to the labour market if possible. Being ill and, at the same time, having to navigate the available offers can be exhausting. Therefore, we offer to support you in a number of ways, such as:
- Advice in connection with your contact with the public sector, including your municipality, to ensure that you receive all relevant offers of treatment, rehabilitation therapy etc.
- Referring you to public offers and benefits and following up on medical recommendations concerning treatment
- Referring you to private sector options
- Coordinating appointments in the private and public healthcare system if you have PFA Health Insurance. Coordination ensures the best possible course of treatment. Find out whether you have PFA Health Insurance at My PFA.
If you are covered by PFA Occupational Capacity, you are automatically also covered by PFA EarlyCare, which offers help from the moment you give a notification of illness.

If you receive salary during your sickness absence
If you receive salary from your employer during your sick leave, you are, as a rule, not entitled to any insurance benefits. However, we can choose to pay out the insurance benefit directly to your employer for a period of time if doing so may help you keep your job.
