A visual environment impaired by e.g. glare can cause eyestrain, visual symptoms and musculoskeletal strain. A Visual Ergonomics Risk Assessment Method (VERAM) consisting of both a subjective questionnaire and an objective risk assessment, have been used at 217 workplaces, mainly computer work. VERAM can be used to examine and prevent deficiencies and increase wellbeing as well as detecting risks
A Circular Economy (CE) calls for the value of materials and products to be maintained and recovered through narrowing, closing, and slowing loops. However, there remain challenges in moving up the waste hierarchy and not only recycling materials from products, but also capturing value through reuse of components in refurbished and repaired products. In this paper, we examine the practice of “harv
We are currently experiencing an enduring global epidemic of obesity and diabetes. It is now understood that chronic low-grade tissue inflammation plays an important role in metabolic disease, brought upon by increased uptake of a so-called Western diet, and a more sedentary lifestyle. Many evolutionarily conserved links exist between metabolism and the immune system, and an imbalance in this syst
The transition towards a circular economy is an imperative function in the pursuit towards a more sustainable fashion textile industry. Through this transition, consumer cooperation and engagement are necessary points in guiding society towards more responsible shopping behaviors. This study extends the understanding of consumer behavior as it pertains to the purchasing, use, and disposal habits o
Denna uppsats undersöker under vilka omständigheter en person som står under övervakning efter villkorlig frigivning eller skyddstillsyn kan nekas pass enligt 21 § 2 st. passlagen (1978:302). Rättsdogmatisk analys kombineras med en kvalitativ genomgång av beslut från en övervakningsnämnd i Stockholm. Särskild uppmärksamhet ägnas åt hur de tre lagstadgade vägransgrunderna tolkas och tillämpas i pra
Denna uppsats syftar att undersöka hur målsäganden framställs i hovrättens domskäl i mål där åtalet avser våldtäkt, efter införandet av samtyckeslagen år 2018. Genom en kombination av rättsdogmatisk och diskursanalytisk metod analyseras sex hovrättsdomar meddelade under år 2024. Uppsatsen undersöker vilka diskurser som återkommer i beskrivningen av målsäganden och dennes agerande, och hur denna be
Rätten ska obligatoriskt verka för förlikning enligt 42 kap. 17 § Rätte-gångsbalken. Lagtexten saknar i stor del anvisningar för vad det innebär att en domare “verkar” för förlikning. Syftet med uppsatsen är att klargöra rättens skyldigheter och möjligheter i förlikningsverksamheten vid dispo-sitiva tvistemål. Det görs genom att besvara tre delfrågor. Under vilka om-ständigheter ska rätten verka fThe court is under a mandatory obligation to promote settlement according to Chapter 42, Section 17 of Rättegångsbalken. However, the statutory provis ion largely lacks guidance on what it entails for a judge to “promote” settle ment. The purpose of this thesis is to clarify the court’s duties and discret ionary powers in settlement efforts within dispositive civil cases. This is done by address
The way in which gender inequality (GI) is conceptualized contributes to determining approaches to overcome it and, ultimately, to achieve gender equality. There has been little previous research on the conceptualization of GI by civil society organizations (CSOs). This thesis aims to improve our understanding of how CSOs conceptualize GI today, how they understand changes in how GI has been conce
Moving ahead from the domination of either side of established powers like socialism, capitalism, or all the -isms, another way seems possible. As we know from history, there is a great potential and capacity that lies within civil society that finds creative ways to tackle the problems others have failed to address. The study aimed to explore the strategies that social enterprises apply to reconc
