Agency theory describes the conflict of interest between the principal (stockholders) and the agent (CEO). Aligning the incentives of executives with those of the owners is the most direct way to mitigate the agency problem. If there is no meaningful link between CEO compensation and company performance, it is doubtful that the large sums of assets in public corporations are being managed efficien
The purpose of this paper is to study the rules of the bill 2007/08: 136 "A reformed sick-leave process of increased return to work" as related to the rehabilitation chain. In the interpretation of the material I have used the “practical legal method” and a minor empirical study has been conducted to find out how Region Skåne and UMAS adjust their activities to the new regulations. The g
Studien syftade till att undersöka om en speciellt utformad kognitiv beteendeterapi med familjestöd, som konstruerats för barn och ungdomar med tvångssyndrom inom barn- och ungdomspsykiatrin i Lund, effektivt minskade barnens symtom. Dessutom undersöktes hur följande variabler påverkade behandlingen: föräldraanpassning, komorbiditet, medicinering, väntetid, ålder och kön, samt om deltagarna sökte
Energy prices are increasing at a high rate, eating away at the municipalities’ operating budgets. With every energy efficiency investment opportunity that is bypassed, tax money is wasted. An investment in new street lighting technology presents financial, environmental and social benefits, yet few municipalities are replacing their lighting installations with more energy efficient technology. It
Sammanfattning I takt med en ökad betydelse för IT-inriktade lösningar har den svenska lagstiftningen i flera avseende uppdaterats allteftersom det har funnits behov. Urkundsförfalskningsparagrafen i 14 kap. 1 § BrB har däremot haft samma ordalydelse sedan 1948. Uppsatsen har syftat till att genom en egen utredning klarlägga ifall det föreligger ett behov av förändring även för 14 kap. 1 § BrB. Fr
It is always challenging to try to transmit and transform values and attitudes within a school in a democratic society, and even more challenging to do so in a group of socially disadvantaged pupils. What happens in a classroom where disadvantaged pupils in the upper secondary school meet teachers who have a general obligation to transmit democratic values? This article is a case study of the inte
In this paper we discuss social policy in relation to different development contexts, where characteristics and outcomes of social policies in different sectors ( e.g.,housing, care, education, social security) are compared. The paper relates to the discussion on the causes and outcomes of welfare state management in different contexts. However, existing analytical models do not fit the mixtures
It is well known that dietary fibre is good for the health. Cereals, and in particular the outer parts of the cereal kernels, are rich in dietary fibre. Rye bran, wheat bran, oat bran and barley fibre have been investigated regarding their suitability as additives in low-fat meat products. Two types of meat products, frankfurter-type sausages and meatballs have been evaluated in this thesis. In th
Mucus glycoproteins (mucins) are the principal constituents of respiratory secretions in health and disease. The increased 'acidity' of mucin producing cells in the bronchitic airways is not reflected in a change of negative charge of bronchitic mucins. Furthermore, the size and macromolecular properties of mucins from chronic bronchitic sputa do not differ significantly from those in normal airwa
