Summary of the session: "In this article we analyze the impact of the reduction of the temporary disability for workers in the public sector, who are affected by the reform. As the reform was implemented in 2012 and we have data on disability benefits Temporary in Spain between 2010 and 2014, we use a model of differences to identify the impact of the policy on temporary losses of workers in the public sector versus workers in the private sector before and after the reform.
