The first part of the IC statistics shows the structure and growth of IC benefits by type of benefit for each reporting year. The second part comprises a detailed description of the growth in the number of benefit recipients and the average benefits drawn, both for each individual type of military service and for compensations for parents. The statistics focus, in particular, on the increase in benefits since the introduction of maternity leave (2005) and leave of the other parent (2021) and, by contrast, the constant decrease in benefits paid for military service (in CHF).
