Abstract
Details were recorded of all sick leave certificates issued for six months in a family practice of 1750 patients in an immigrant Yemenite working class town. Certificates were issued most on Sundays and in the autumn festive season. The common diagnoses were inflammation of the upper respiratory or gastrointestinal tracts, locomotor disorders in men and gynaecological disorders in women.
