Diskriminering i rekryteringsprocessen : En kvalitativ studie om tio bemanningsföretags diskrimineringsåtgärder

Holm Bjerklinger, Kajsa, Sigfridsson, Pauline January 2021 (has links)
Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur bemanningsföretag i Sverige aktivt arbetar för att undvika diskriminering i rekryteringsprocessen av bemanningspersonal. Kön, etnicitet och ålder har visats vara de vanligast förekommande grunderna för diskriminering i rekryteringssammanhang. En kvalitativ metod användes och materialet samlades in via semi-strukturerade intervjuer. Intervjuerna baserades på en pilottestad intervjuguide. Ett målinriktat urval applicerades och det slutgiltiga urvalet bestod av tio respondenter (N=10), fem kvinnliga och fem manliga, från tio olika bemanningsföretag runt om i Sverige. Vid analys av det insamlade materialet tillämpades en tematisk analys. Resultatet visade att den egna rekryteringsprocessen ansågs neutral, men att diskriminering kunde förekomma hos kundföretaget. Studien resulterade i att risk för omedveten diskriminering förekom i rekryteringsprocessen och att få åtgärder medvetet genomfördes hos bemanningsföretagen för att undvika diskriminering i rekryteringsprocessen. Samtliga respondenter visade tecken på blindspot bias och studien mynnade ut i att så länge människor är involverade i rekryteringsprocessen kommer den troligtvis inte vara helt neutral.

The blindspot: a thesis in landscape architecture

Lim, Jennifer Louise 09 September 2011 (has links)
The intent of this thesis is to catalogue and seek to understand why we desire what we desire and how this desire is transcribed onto the landscape. Applying this knowledge can be used to assist landscape architects through the design process by understanding the complex systems that interact to define I and We. Questions of concern to this thesis can be summarized as; • Is the theory that our desires affect the designs of landscape architects tenable? • Can this theory be implemented? • And, if so, to what degree?

Wah Eye Nuh See Heart Nuh Leap: Queer Marronage In The Jamaican Dancehall

Moore, CARLA 30 January 2014 (has links)
This thesis explores the interweaving of colonial and post-colonial British and Jamaican Laws and the interpretive legalities of sexuality, compulsory heterosexuality, and queerness. The research project begins by exploring the ways in which the gendered colonial law produces black sexualities as excessive and in need of discipline while also noticing how Caribbean peoples negotiate and subvert these legalities. The work then turns to dancehall and its enmeshment with landscape (which reflects theatre-in-the round and African spiritual ceremonies), psycho scape (which retains African uses of marronage and pageantry as personhood), and musicscape (which deploys homophobia to demand heterosexuality), in order to tease out the complexities of Caribbean sexualities and queer practices. I couple these legal narratives and geographies with interviews and ethnographic data and draw attention to the ways in which queer men inhabit the dancehall. I argue that queer men participate in a dancehall culture—one that is perceived as heterosexual and homophobic—undetected because of the over-arching (cultural and aesthetic) queerness of the space coupled with the de facto heterosexuality afforded all who ‘brave’ dancehall’s homophobia. Queer dancehall participants report that inhabiting this space involves the tactical deployment of (often non-sexual) heterosexual signifiers as well as queering the dancehall aesthetic by moving from margin to centre. In so doing, I argue, queer dancehall queers transition from unvisible (never seen but always invoked) to invisible (blending into the queered space) while also moving across and through, as well as calling into question, North American gay culture, queer liberalism, and identity politics. / Thesis (Master, Gender Studies) -- Queen's University, 2014-01-30 13:32:15.082
