Summary/Abstract: This article aims to analyse the changes in the Romanian legislation concerning the control of issuing sick leave certificates compared to the existing regulations in the French and the Italian legal system. Under the terms of the global economic crisis, the performances of public health system and sanitary units are of poor quality, with adverse effects on the efficiency with which people’s contributions to the health insurance budget are spent. One of these negative effects, caused by the lack of budgetary funds, consisted in the modification of the Government’s Emergency Ordinance no. 158/2005 on health insurance leaves and allowances through the Government’s Emergency Ordinance no. 36/2010 which regulated the control concerning the method of granting certificates for sick leave, providing for the possibility to verify the presence of the insured person at his domicile or residence as indicated throughout the duration of the temporary incapacity for work.
