Studiens syfte är att undersöka barns delaktighet i LVU-domar och hur barnets bästa beaktas gällande beredande av vård 2 § LVU (1990:52). Studien ämnar även att belysa vilken tidigare kännedom socialtjänsten haft om barnen som domarna berör. Studien ämnar även att undersöka vilket skydd barn som far illa får från samhället. Studien är en kvalitativ dokumentstudie som baseras på 16 LVU-domar. Domarna har analyserats genom en tematisk analys för att finna relevanta temaområden. Materialet har analyserats med hjälp av tidigare forskning, Bronfenbrenners utvecklingsekologiska teori och Harts delaktighetstrappa. Resultatet visar att det finns skillnader i hur delaktiga barn är. Barns delaktighet är särskilt framträdande i ärenden som gäller våld i hemmet. Vidare framkommer det att barnets bästa baseras på vilka behov barnet har. I majoriteten av fallen har barnen levt med omsorgsbrister under en lång tid, vilket tyder på att det finns brister i hur socialtjänsten hanterar barnavårdsutredningar. Det framkommer att socialtjänsten har ett familjestödjande fokus vilket leder till att ansökan om LVU aktualiseras i ett sent skede. En konsekvens av det är att, i flera av fallen, har barnens hälsa och utveckling redan kommit till skada.

Title: What contributes to work satisfaction and intention to stay at the workplace?                                  - social workers’ reflections The aim of this study was to investigate how social workers reflect on how various factors in their work environment contribute to their work satisfaction and intention to stay at the workplace. Four qualitative group interviews were conducted with totally 16 social workers. The interviews were analyzed by using three different theoretical models: the demand-control-support model, the effort-reward model and the model a Sense of Coherence (SOC). The results were then interpreted from a hermeneutic approach. The result shows that several interacting factors were described as important for how the social workers perceived their work satisfaction and their intention to stay at the workplace. Discretion, i.e. being able to decide independently how to work with the caseload and to have a meningful job were the two themes that emerged as most important for work satisfaction and intention to stay at the workplace. The social workers described that their work would not feel meaningful if the discretion was too limited and if they would not be able to help their clients and to make their own decisions from the client’s situation and needs. Furthermore, the social workers described that organizational conditions such as support from colleagues and managers, participation in what happens at the workplace, clear structures, role clarity and development possibilities were recurring themses. Keywords: social workers, work conditions, work environment, work satisfaction, intention to stay at the workplace
