P-1039 - CONSIDERATION OF DISABILITY OF PEOPLE WITH MENTAL ILLNESS R.Cevela, L.Celedova, R.Ptacek, H.Kuzelova 1 Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs, 2Charles University, Prague, Czech Republic The consideration of the condition and the decline rate of working ability are of great importance for admission of disability pension. The pension insurance law and the edict on disability govern the disability assessment procedure. In 2010, essential changes were made in the consideration of disability - there were established three degrees of disability and the burden of every health insurance is embodied by percentual evaluation which is given by the edict. Mental disorder was the third most common causation of incapacitation until 2009, although since 2010 it has been the second one. 178 800 people were acknowledged as disabled in 2009 - out of which 10 698 were because of mental ilness. In 2010, there were 168 910 admissions of disability, 13 106 of them because of mental disorder. Despite of the change in attitude towards disability consideration since 2010, which brought the synoptical legal general system with the possibility of individualization, there has been increase in disability on mental illness since 2009. This growth can be explained by the increase of mental disorders and dystropy.
