Abstract: The importance of road traffic injuries in Croatia is not generally appreciated due to lack of knowledge of its economic burden. The total years of potential life lost (YPLL), potentially productive years of life lost (PPYLL) and the valued years of potential life lost (VPYLL) from road traffic mortality are calculated in order to estimate the cost of productivity losses from road traffic deaths in Croatia. Road traffic deaths costed Croatia approximately 62,694,077.4 € in 2011 in productivity losses alone. Croatia needs to implement cost-eff ective interventions to reduce the economic burden of fatal and non-fatal road traffic injuries.
