Aim The aim of this study was to examine current factors regarding strength and conditioning coaches at the collegiate level, furthermore to examine factors dependent on the level of sports. 1. What was the educational background of strength and conditioning coaches at the collegiate level? 2. What was the salary of strength and conditioning coaches at the collegiate level? 3. How much relevant work experience did strength and conditioning coaches have at the collegiate level? 4. What were the differences and similarities of strength and conditioning coaches’ factors dependent on collegiate division? Method The method was a cross-sectional study applying a survey to examine the study’s four previously mentioned issues. Coaches encompassing the inclusion criteria (e.g. seniority and professionalism) of the study were contacted for possible participation. The survey was sent to collegiate strength and conditioning coaches (n=225) whom were randomly chosen with equal amounts of potential samples from each division. The results were then analyzed using mode, mean, range and frequency. Results 82 surveys were completed and returned (36 %). Three surveys were ineligible, therefore 79 surveys were used to produce the results. A Master’s degree (67.09 %) and CSCS certification (81.01 %) were recognized as common attributes among collegiate strength and conditioning coaches. Salary and relevant experience answers were fairly spread throughout all divisions. Differences in certifications were found as the SCCC was cited in higher frequency among Division I coaches (52.63 %) than the two lower divisions (≤26.67 %). Conclusions Both a master’s degree within a relevant field and a CSCS certification can be regarded as fundamental attributes of collegiate strength and conditioning coaches. Work experience and CSCCa certifications may be efficient predictors for salary and involvement in elite versus non-elite environments. The study’s results will aid aspiring collegiate strength and conditioning coaches in career development as well as employers in hiring processes.

Exceptionnel ou non, Vietnam est tout de même le choix heureux d’un cas utile pour les analyses sociologiques. Il suffit de choisir le champ pour cette analyse. Ici, ce champ découvert est ouvert aux lecteurs: le salariat en ce pays hermétiquement fermé durant des décades. Comment les travailleurs agricoles ont été recrutés et rémunérés pendant la période coloniale française? Quelle est la composition du salariat au Vietnam durant cette période de soixante ans d’existence? Quels sont les traits de la bureaucratie tracés sur les visages de ses salariés? Comment était la vie des travailleurs, ouvriers, employés, paysans, intellectuels en ce pays si riche en ressources naturelles et humaines et pourtant si pauvre? A travers tableaux et graphiques, interviews et descriptions, la monographie a bien voulu présenter le vrai visage du Vietnam espérant tracer une voie (si vague soit-elle) dénommée Espoir. / Whether is it an exception or not, Vietnam remains at any rate a lucky choice for a case study that fits any sociological analysis. The methodology is how to choose the domain for such analysis. That research field has been found out and is demonstrated here to the readers as: the salaried staff in this several decade long tight closed country. How the agricultural workers are employed and paid during the French colonial period? What is the composition of the salaried staff in Vietnam during sixty years long period? What is the profile of the ghost named as bureaucracy depicted in the real faces of these salaried people? How is the life of workers, white and blue collars, peasants and intellectuals in this so rich country in natural and human resources and so poor physically and spiritually? Using tables and graphics, interviews and descriptions, the essay would like to present the true face of Vietnam with the hope to work out for a (while remaining blurring vague) outline named as Hope.

In the second, namely the qualitative phase, interviews were conducted with a sample of 10 teachers who were purposefully selected from a larger sample. The data were analysed by using the constant comparative method. The results make a significant contribution to new knowledge and understanding of current issues relating to the job satisfaction of teachers in selected secondary schools in Addis Ababa. The results indicated that the teachers were significantly dissatisfied with most aspects of their work. Salary and benefits emerged as the primary dissatisfying aspect of all the work factors. Other areas of dissatisfaction related to poor fringe benefits and opportunities for promotion, the management style of the principals, the lack of decision-making opportunities for the teachers, as well as the opportunity to develop personally, and the poor relationships teachers have with the principals and the parents. The data also indicated that teachers who were 50 years and older, were significantly more satisfied with their work than the younger teachers. Accordingly, teachers with 21 years and more experience were also significantly more satisfied with their work than the less experienced teachers. In addition, all four of the identified factors were found to have statistically significant correlations with job satisfaction. Qualitative data confirmed the quantitative results. Finally, recommendations were made in order to enhance the job satisfaction of secondary school teachers in Addis Ababa, and for further research. / Psychology of Education / D. Ed.

Denna studie syftar till att få en ökad förståelse om belöningssystem och hur de är utformade på bank- och försäkringsbolag men också att se uppfattningar som finns kring vad anställda på bank- och försäkringsbolagen har för attityd till belöningssystem och ifall det är en motivation till att nå företagets mål. Två forskningsfrågor ligger till grund för att uppnå och besvara syftet av studien. Studien har en kvalitativ metodansats med en abduktiv ansats. Teorin berör bland annat områden som syftet med belöningssystem och välkända motivationsteorier. Datainsamlingen har skett genom semistrukturerade intervjuer på två bank- och försäkringsbolag som sedan resulterade i en empiri där varje intervjus data har analyserats. Studiens empiriska material tillsammans med teorin resulterade i slutsatser om att belöningssystemen på de två företagen är uppbyggda på liknande grunder och har samma syfte samt att en kombination mellan monetära och icke-monetära belöningar fungerar bäst för att motivera anställda. / This study aims to gain increased understanding about the reward system and how it’s designed at Swedish bank and insurance companies but also to see perceptions about what employees of bank and insurance companies have for attitude to reward system and to see if there is a motivation to reach the company’s goals.

Denna studie avsåg att beskriva hur kvinnliga fastighetsmäklare upplever att en mammaledighet kan komma att påverka deras karriärer. Vi ville undersöka om blivande mammor upplever en oro inför och efter en mammaledighet samt i vilken utsträckning de anser att lönemodellen skulle vara en påverkande faktor. Vidare ville vi undersöka om fastighetsmäklares yrke är anpassat för en mammaledighet, om konkurrensen inom branschen påverkar huruvida yrket går att kombinera med barn och om det finns några hinder som påverkar kvinnans karriär när hon återgår till arbetet efter mammaledigheten.  Tillvägagångssättet för arbetet var kvalitativa studier i form av intervjuer med kvinnliga fastighetsmäklare. Vårt resultat visade att fastighetsmäklares yrke är anpassat för mammaledighet, men däremot inte för när kvinnan väl kommer tillbaka från mammaledigheten. Majoriteten av respondenterna menade att det var som tuffast när de kom tillbaka efter sin mammaledighet. Konkurrensen inom branschen påverkar huruvida yrket går att kombinera med barn både inför och efter mammaledigheten. Det finns hinder som påverkar kvinnans karriär vid återkomsten efter mammaledigheten och det största hindret är att hon inte längre är lika tillgänglig som tidigare, på grund av att hon blivit mamma. Vi anser att vidare forskning bör studera anledningen mer djupgående till varför kvinnor valt att sluta arbeta som mäklare efter deras mammaledighet. Samt undersöka om det finns någon vision eller plan inom branschorganisationen, för att minska antalet avregistreringar bland kvinnliga mäklare som väljer att skaffa familj. Att byta ut våra kvinnliga respondenter mot män som varit pappalediga och tillämpa vår studie på dessa är ett annat förslag till vidare forskning. Studien kan inspirera branschen och förbunden att utforma mer stabila och bättre villkor, bättre förutsättningar och större trygghet för mammalediga kvinnor. Studien kan även ge arbetsgivare en inblick i, kunskap och förståelse för hur kvinnliga fastighetsmäklares karriärer påverkas av deras mammaledighet och fylla det kunskapsgap som finns. / This study was intended to describe how female real estate agents experience that maternity leave may affect their careers. We wanted to investigate whether future mothers experience an anxiety before and after maternity leave and to what extent they consider that the salary model would be an influencing factor. Furthermore, we wanted to investigate whether the profession of real estate agent is adapted to maternity leave, if the competition in the industry affects whether the profession can be combined with children and if there are any barriers that affect the woman's career when she returns to work after maternity leave. The approach for work was qualitative studies in the form of interviews with female real estate agents. Our result showed that the real estate agent's profession is adapted for maternity leave, but on the other hand not for when she returns from maternity leave. The majority of respondents said it was the toughest part when they returned after their maternity leave. The competition in the industry affects whether the profession can be combined with children both before and after maternity leave. There are barriers that affect the woman's career on the return after maternity leave and the biggest obstacle is that she is no longer as available as before, due to becoming a mother.  We believe further research should study the reason more profoundly why women chose to stop working as a real estate agent after their maternity leave. As well as investigating whether there is any vision or a plan within the industry organization, to reduce the number of deregisters among female brokers who choose to acquire a family. Replacing our female respondents, to men who have been parental leave, and apply our study on these is another suggestion for further research. The study can inspire the industry and the unions to formulate more stable and better terms, better conditions and greater security for maternity women. The study can also provide employers with an insight into, knowledge and understanding of how women's real estate agents are affected by their maternity leave and fulfill the gap of knowledge that exists.

This research aims to answer the following question: could decent work, especially salary, as a poverty reducer and source of development, represent an obstacle to economic growth and effectiveness of labor fundamental rights? The subject was approached with dialectical and deductive methods, using a qualitative theoretical-instrumental legal research. As procedure was used historical, comparative and interpretative methods, and also indirect documentation as research technique. From human rights and labor fundamentals analysis, the present work will analyze the centrality of salary in economic and social rights listing antagonistic features which constitute the core of salary in a hybrid way with economic and social dimensions. Neoliberal primers aim high productivity over salary and dignity of workers. In this context is highlighted the importance of a decent work agenda, exponent of International Labour Organization which worries about checking effectiveness to human rights internationally and to labor fundamental rights inside each country. Likewise, this work brings researches from International Labour Organization, DepartamentoIntersindical de Estatística, EstudosSocioeconômicos, InstitutoBrasileiro de Geografia e Estatística and other institutes, ratifying the relevance of imbricated study between salary, decent work and development combining with statistical data about the subject evolution and effectiveness of labor fundamental rights. / O presente trabalho dissertativo enfoca a análise do salário como elo entre o crescimento econômico e o desenvolvimento, tanto do trabalhador quanto do Estado, relacionando-o, igualmente, à efetivação dos direitos fundamentais laborais e o trabalho decente. A pesquisa aqui proposta se desenvolverá em torno da seguinte questão: o trabalho decente, em especial, o salário, se descortina como indutor da redução da pobreza e fonte de desenvolvimento, mas representaria, dessa forma, entrave para o crescimento econômico e a efetivação dos direitos fundamentais laborais? Para tanto, foi empreendida uma pesquisa jurídica teórico-instrumental, de natureza qualitativa, utilizando os métodos dialético e dedutivo para a abordagem do tema. Como procedimento foram empregados os métodos histórico, comparativo e interpretativo e, por fim, utilizou-se como técnica de pesquisa, a documentação indireta. Partindo da análise dos direitos humanos e fundamentais laborais, o presente estudo analisará a centralidade do salário no âmbito dos direitos econômicos e sociais elencando as características antagônicas que constituem a essência do salário de forma híbrida com dimensões tanto econômicas quanto sociais. As cartilhas neoliberais buscam a elevada produtividade em detrimento do salário e da dignidade do trabalhador. É nesse contexto que se reveste de importância a agenda do trabalho decente, expoente da Organização Internacional do Trabalho, que atenta para as dificuldades em conferir efetividade aos direitos humanos no plano internacional e aos direitos fundamentais laborais no plano interno de cada país. Outrossim, o trabalho traz à lume pesquisas da Organização Internacional do Trabalho, Departamento Intersindical de Estatística e Estudos Socioeconomicos, Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística, dentre outras instituições, ratificando a importância do estudo imbricado entre salário, trabalho decente e desenvolvimento aliando ainda a dados estatísticos sobre a evolução do tema e da efetividade dos direitos fundamentais laborais.
