WORKING WITH SYSTEMATIC WORK ENVIRONMENT WITHIN THE CONSULTANCY INDUSTRY : - A qualitative study of consultant employees’ and managers’ perceptions of how consultant- and client companies work with work environment/healthIdahosa, Jennifer January 2021 (has links)
Approximately 1,6 percent of Swedish employees work under a consultancy firm, which is a fast-growing market. The responsibility of consultant’s work environment is in accordance with Swedish legislation on systematic work environment (SAM) divided between consultant- and client company. This study investigated how 1) consultants experience that their consultant- and client company employers, respectively, work with work environment health; 2) both consultant- and client company employers, respectively, experience their work with implementing work environment/health practices based on SAM. Data collection consisted of 12 in-depth interviews with 8 consultants, 3 consultant managers, and 1 workplace manager. Based on thematic analysis of interviews with consultants three themes were identified: Communication and relation with managers; Justice and inclusion; Managers’ involvement in workplace health. Based on thematic analysis of interviews with managers four themes were identified: Working with SAM; Work environment goals, Relation between consultant- and workplace managers, Relation with consultants. Findings showed the importance of supportive and present leadership, workplace justice and inclusion for consultants’ wellbeing. This responsibility of consultant’s daily work environment was mainly taken by workplace managers. Conclusions are that clear communication and division of responsibility between consultant- and workplace managers regarding consultants’ work environment/health is vital for well-functioning SAM.

Kvinnliga fastighetsmäklares utsatthet för könsdiskriminering och sexuella trakasserier i fastighetsmäklaryrket i Sverige / Female Real Estate Agents’ Exposure to Gender Discrimination and Sexual Harassment in the Real Estate Industry in SwedenFröjdh, Elina January 2023 (has links)
Uppsatsen syftar till att bidra med mer kunskap om könsdiskriminering och sexuella trakasserier riktade mot kvinnliga fastighetsmäklare i Sverige. Frågor som besvaras är: Hur uppfattar fastighetsmäklarna organisationskulturen på sina arbetsplatser? Förekommer könsdiskriminering och sexuella trakasserier i branschen? I så fall, i vilken omfattning och hur ges det i uttryck? Studien genomförs med hjälp av en kvantitativ metod i form av en webbenkät, besvarad av kvinnliga fastighetsmäklare i Sverige. Resultatet visar att fastighetsmäklarna anses ha en kultur på arbetsplatsen som tillåter samtal om arbetsmiljö, men däremot är det mindre än hälften av dem som känner till om arbetsplatsen har ett tillvägagångssätt för hantering av bristande arbetsmiljöhälsa. Studien visar också att könsdiskriminering och sexuella trakasserier förekommer i fastighetsmäklarbranschen mot kvinnliga fastighetsmäklare. Undersökningen visar att den som diskriminerar och/eller trakasserar är en chef, kollega/branschkollega och/eller kund/spekulant. Handlingen ges i uttryck både verbalt och fysiskt. / The purpose of this study is to contribute with more knowledge about gender discrimination and sexual harassment directet towards real estate agents in Sweden. Questions answered are: How do real estate agents perceive the organizational culture at their workplace? Does gender discrimination and sexual harassment occur in the industry? If so, to what extent, and how is it expressed? The study is based on a quantitative method, using an internet based questionnaire, answered by female real estate agents in Sweden. The results of the study show that the real estate agents are considered to have a culture in the workplace that allows conversations about the work environment, but on the other hand, less than half of them know whether the workplace has an approach for handling poor work environment health. The study also shows that gender discrimination and sexual harassment occur in the real estate industry against female real estate agents. It is shown that the person who discriminates/harasses is a manager, colleague/colleague in the industry and/or customer/speculator. The action can be expressed both verbally and physically.

A process evaluation of a workplace HIV and AIDS policy implementation at Sappi-Ngodwana Mill in MpumalangaMuregi, Zibusiso 02 1900 (has links)
Text in English / This study sought to evaluate the implementation of an HIV and AIDS workplace policy at Sappi-Ngodwana mill. Employing process evaluation, and adopting a qualitative approach, the study evaluated the intervention process, the perceptions of the policy implementers, the strengths and weaknesses of the policy implementation, and suggests possible strategies for addressing the challenges. A systems approach was the theoretical point of departure and guiding framework of the research study. Research data was gathered through in-depth interviews with key informants and theory-driven and data-driven inductive reasoning was adopted in analysing the data. The general findings were that although the Sappi-Ngodwana mill implements a comprehensive HIV and AIDS programme that are in line with national and international benchmarks, there were challenges identified. Recommendations are that the company redesign the HIV and AIDS policy implementation plan with a specific focus on improving the peer educators` system. / Sociology / M.A. (Social Behaviour Studies in HIV/AIDS)
