We present new data from a factorial survey experiment on sickness presenteeism, collected as a follow-up to the 2024 BIBB/BAuA Employment Survey - a representative survey of the German workforce. The factorial survey uses hypothetical scenarios to examine how employees decide between going to work, calling in sick, or working from home when experiencing illness. Scenarios systematically vary dimensions such as symptom severity, contagiousness, attendance pressure, and workload. Sub-experiments address performance pressure and period pain presenteeism. The dataset also includes measures on motivational drivers and workday adjustments, providing detailed, causal insights into sickness-related decision-making in contemporary work environments.
