En arbetsplats kan av olika skäl råka ut för en tillfällig nedgång i behovet av arbetskraft. Ett sätt att bemöta detta har traditionellt varit att tillgripa permitteringar. Permittering kan förekomma vid både tillsvidare- och visstidsanställda, men historiskt sett har det oftast rört sig om timanställda. Permitteringar förekommer i princip enbart på arbetarområdet. Med begreppet permittering menasA workplace can due to various reasons, experience a temporary decline in the demand for labor. One way to address this has traditionally been resorting to layoffs. Layoffs may occur in both permanent and fixed-term employments, but historically it has often been a matter of hourly employees. The term layoff means that an employer has the opportunity to temporary layoff employees, or due to some o

Migrant women facing domestic violence in the Council of Europe have been traditionally characterised, except in some national countries, as not having any legal possibility to leave the situation with proper resources, or being able to guarantee their stay in the country they are living. Since the approval of the Council of Europe Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and

This thesis is about combining three archaeological themes; the interpretation of grave contexts, social identities and Iron Age jewellery has been given a place here. The aim was to discern which meanings and functions that can be connected to Migration Period bracteates in graves, and if so how they manifest in the context. Bracteates, small pendants dated to the Migration and Vendel periods, ha

Konsumenters diskussioner kring produkter och tjänster, s.k. word of mouth, har fått alltmer betydelse i takt med framväxten av Internet och sociala medier. Dessa digitala verktyg har möjliggjort en större spridning av konsumenters åsikter och diskussioner, vilket kan påverka ett företags varumärke både negativt och positivt. Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur word of mouth skapas kring Consumer discussions regarding products and services, so called word of mouth, has received increasing importance with the emergence of the Internet and social media. These digital tools have enabled a greater distribution of consumers' opinions and discussions, which can affect a company's brand both negatively and positively.

Den organiserade brottsligheten i Sverige har radikalt ökat de senaste åren. Det förekommer debatter och förslag på hur man bäst ska få ordning på den ökade kriminaliteten och oron i samhället som har vuxit sig alltjämt starkare. En tanke som länge präglat straffrätten är att kvinnor inte begår brott i samma utsträckning som män. Huvudsakligen stämmer det, men statistiken talar för att kvinnors brThe organized crime in Sweden has radically increased over the past years. There have been debates and proposals on how to bring order to the increased crime and unrest in society. An idea that has long influenced society and criminal law is that women do not commit crimes to the same extent as men. Nor do they participate in criminal networks. There is truth to it, but statistics also suggest tha

Byggandet av en organisation som externt uppfattas som trovärdig och legitim är av stor vikt för att långsiktigt värna om organisationens överlevnad. Detta görs exempelvis genom att kommunicera om organisationens hållbarhetsprestationer och visioner, och utgör grunden för hur organisationen följaktligen uppfattas av sina intressenter. Genom att vd:n väljer att kommunicera om organisationens hållbaThe way an organization builds itself to be externally perceived as credible and legitimate is of great importance for ensuring the long-term survival of the organization. This is achieved, for example, by communicating the organization's sustainability achievements and visions, forming the basis for how the organization is consequently perceived by its stakeholders. When the CEO chooses to co

Genrepedagogikens genomslag i en digitaliserad skola innebär att skrivundervisningens lärresurser i hög grad utgörs av olika typer av modelltexter. Läromedelsutredningen (SOU 2021:70) utförd på uppdrag av regeringen synliggör en spänning mellan den fysiska läroboken och alternativa undervisningsmaterial, men också att forskningen om hur lärresurser används i Sverige är begränsad. Syftet med denna Teaching and Learning Resources in Genre Pedagogy – The Role of Teaching and Learning Materials in the Development of Students’ Non-Fiction Writing Skills The impact of genre pedagogy in a digitalised school means that the resources for teaching writing are largely made up of different types of model texts. Läromedelsutredningen (SOU 2021:70) carried out on behalf of the government highlights a t

Utmärkande för aktiebolaget som associationsform är att varken aktieägare eller bolagsledning bär ett personligt ansvar för bolagets förpliktelser. Enbart bolagets egna tillgångar kan därför tas i anspråk för dess skulder. För att balansera det begränsade personliga ansvaret mot borgenärernas intresse av att få betalt för sina fordringar innehåller aktiebolagslagen (2005:551) (ABL) bestämmelser soA characteristic feature of the limited liability company as a form of association is that neither shareholders nor directors of the board are personally liable for the company’s obligations. Only the company’s own assets can therefore be used to pay its debts. In order to balance the limited personal liability against creditors’ interest in receiving payment for their claims, Chapter 17 of the Sw

Inconel 718 is a widely used Nickel-based alloy in the aerospace sector. However, its exceptional mechanical properties make it a very difficult material for machining operations. Additive manufacturing presents itself as a promising alternative, as it would reduce the need for post-printing material removal by machining. However, not enough research has been done about the behaviour of this mater
