Research project concerning the calculation of the financial consequences of the reform of the illness pensions for the statutory personnel in the Belgian public sector, based on the proposal of the Commission on the Pension Reform 2020-2040

The Commission Pension Reform 2020-2040 has suggested to end the arrangement regarding the early retirement of the definitively disabled civil servants. In the new system, civil servants would fall within the scope of the health insurance, just like contracted government employees and workers in the private sector. This implies certain alterations, not in the least regarding costs. The aim of this study is to assess, in a large set of cases, what the financial impact of this suggested reform would be.
