Covid-19-pandemin är något som varit aktuellt ett tag och som påverkat de flesta på ett eller annat sätt. Av denna anledning är kopplingen mellan byggbranschen och pandemin intressant att undersöka.  Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur Covid-19 pandemin har påverkat byggföretag i Örebro län. Har företagen upplevt några svårigheter under pandemin och hur har de handskats med dem.  För att kunna utföra studien användes en kvalitativ forskningsstudie i form av intervjuer. Metoden användes för att låta företagen få uttrycka sina egna upplevelser om pandemin. De företag som intervjuades var Byggföretagen, OBK Sverige, Tida Byggpartner och NA Bygg. Vidare användes även litteraturstudier för att kunna uppnå syftet med studien. Resultatet av studien visar att alla företag har påverkats på något sätt av pandemin.  Företagen uttryckte att den sociala aspekten har blivit lidande på grund av pandemin. Då regeringen införde restriktioner kunde företagen inte längre ha personalfester, utbildningar på plats, fysiska möten eller äta lunch tillsammans. Det har blivit följder av detta då ett företag märkt av att lojaliteten i företaget har minskat.  Det som har fått störst påverkan av pandemin är materialet. Det har under denna tid blivit en märkbar materialbrist. Detta har lett till att alla företag som intervjuats någon gång under pandemin behövt tänka om och bytt material eller behövt kommit på någon annan lösning. Bristen på material har även lätt till en rejäl prisökning, vilket skapat en osäkerhet i branschen. / The Covid-19 pandemic is something that has been relevant for a while and that has affected most people in one way or another. For this reason, the link between the construction industry and the pandemic is interesting to investigate. The purpose of this study is to investigate how the Covid-19 pandemic has affected construction companies in Örebro County. If the companies experienced any difficulties during the pandemic and how they dealt with them. To be able to carry out the study, a qualitative research study was used in the form of interviews. The method was used to allow companies to express their own experiences of the pandemic. The companies interviewed were Byggföretagen, OBK Sverige, Tida Byggpartner and NA Bygg. Furthermore, literature studies were also used to be able to achieve the purpose of the study.  The results of the study show that all companies have been affected in some way by the pandemic. The companies expressed that the social aspect has suffered due to the pandemic. When the government introduced restrictions, companies could no longer have staff parties, training on-site, physical meetings, or lunch together. There have been consequences, as a result a company noticed that loyalty in the company has decreased. The aspect that has had the greatest impact from the pandemic is the material. During this time there has been a noticeable lack of material. This has led to all companies that were interviewed at some point during the pandemic having to rethink and change the material or come up with some other solution. The lack of materials has also led to a substantial price increase, which has created uncertainty in the industry.

The diploma thesis deals with a topic related to the Covid-19 pandemic, specifically the impact on the sex business, resp. to people who move in this segment of commercial sexual services. The work aimed to analyze and describe the possible effects in the defined areas, which arose from the available studied sources (mainly foreign). The impacts were examined using qualitative methods in the areas (psychosocial and socio-economic, health, safety, change of sex business, and legalization of sex business) about those who move in this area and earn their living, family security, and benefits other liabilities (e.g., debts). The analyzed areas and the described impacts resulting from the semi-structured interviews were compared in discussion with the results of foreign research reports or with Czech sources of helping organizations, and were suggested possible ways to mitigate these impacts or may be prevented by future measures.
