Do I earn vacation while on sick leave or parental leave in Sweden?
Yes, certain absence counts as work when leave is accrued. Sickness counts for up to 180 days per accrual year. Parental leave counts for up to 120 days per child and birth, and 180 days for single parents. Absence beyond these limits does not earn paid leave days.
