Abstract

This work analyses the main characteristics of the disability insurance in the states-successors of the SFRY. Definitions of disability and its most important elements – general and professional incapacity for work, duration of disability, as well as the partial incapacity for work were specifically considered.

Serbia and Montenegro, have chosen general incapacity, i.e. incapacity to exercise any job instead of incapacity for work which worker has performed, while Montenegro has constituted partial disability. acceptation of general incapacity for work is provoked by the need for reduction of number of the beneficiaries of disability pensions. Croatia and Macedonia have constituted professional incapacity for work, in order to compensate lacks of the concept of general incapacity.

More degrees of partial disability are retained by the disability insurance in Slovenia and in the entities of the Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Compared survey of the conditions to entitlement clear point that Slovenia has retained the highest scope of the right, while Serbia has performed the highest reduction.
