Since the late 80s, Sweden has a system where on the first day when you're off work due to illness, you're not paid ("karensdag").

I started working just before this system was put in place, and there was so much sick leave claimed that people were seriously wondering why Swedish workplaces were so unhealthy. A year after the reform, the numbers fell precipitously.
