Uppsatsens syfte var att undersöka hur ledare hanterar situationer där medarbetares privata problem inverkar negativt på arbetet för både arbetsgivare och övriga medarbetare. För att få svar på det har vi inspirerats av vinjettstudie som utgår från diskussioner av fiktiva fall. Vi har genomfört studien med fyra enskilda semistrukturerade intervjuer och en fokusgruppsintervju där vi först introducerade respondenterna med vinjetterna. Deltagarna till undersökningen valdes ut genom ett subjektivt urval där vi riktade in oss på ledare, angående vilken organisation de tillhörde var av mindre vikt. I teoridelen introducerades teorierna ledarskap, medarbetarskap, individen i gruppen, ekonomi, hälsa, lagar, organisationskultur och föreskrifter samt försäkringskassans roll. Resultatet analyserades sedan mot teorierna och vi kan konstatera att respondenterna generellt menade att det var viktigt att prioritera kommunikation och relationer. Betydelsefullt var att relationerna etablerades innan problemen uppstår eftersom det anses vara svårt att skapa relationer i konfliktfyllda lägen. Tiden har betydelse vid hantering av problem av den orsaken att gränsen för vad som är acceptabelt förflyttas med tidens gång. Beroende på problem varierade graden av toleransnivå hos chefer och övriga medarbetare i vår undersökning. Resultatet visade att gränsen för privatlivets påverkan på arbetslivet går när arbetet blir misskött och när kunder och andra medarbetare påverkas. Utifrån ett genusperspektiv ansåg intervjupersonerna att det saknade betydelse om chefen var en man eller kvinna när det handlade om att hantera problem som uppkom, det ansågs vara personligt. / Essay aims was to examine how leaders handle situations where the employee's personal problems have a negative impact on the work of both the employer and other employees. To get an answer to that, we have been inspired by the vignette study based on discussions of fictional cases. We have, through continued study with four individual semi-structured interviews and a focus groups interview where we first introduced the respondent theme with the vignettes. Participants for the study were selected by a judgmental sample where we focused ourselves on leaders, about which organization they belonged to was of minor importance. In the theoretical part introduces the theories of leadership, teamwork, the individual in the group, finances, health, laws organizational culture and regulations and social insurance role. The results are then analyzed against the theories and we can conclude that the respondent theme generally believe that it is important to prioritize communication and relationships. It is significant that the relations established before problems arise because it is considered difficult to form relationships in conflicted situations. Time is important when handling problems of the cause to the limit of what is acceptable is moved with the passage of time. Depending on the problem varied degree of tolerance level of managers and other employees in our survey. The results showed that the limit for private life's influence on the world of work is when the work will be mismanaged and when customers and other employees are affected. From a gender perspective, respondents felt that the missing matter whether the manager was a man or woman when it came to dealing with the problems that arose, it was considered to be private.
