Statistik visar att diskriminering på arbetsplatser och på arbetsmarknaden är ett vanligt förekommande fenomen. HR-yrket präglas av låg representation av personer födda utanför Norden och är dessutom starkt kvinnodominerat. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur HR-professionella med etnisk minoritetsstatus, i kombination med andra identitetsaspekter, upplever och hanterar utmaningar i sitt

Människor spenderar mer än 90 % av livet inomhus. En innemiljö med god luftkvalitet är avgörande för människors välmående, både kort- och långsiktigt. Människor kan drabbas av bland annat huvudvärk, irriterade slemhinnor, hosta, andnings- och koncentrationssvårigheter orsakat av föroreningar i luften. Detta examensarbete kartlägger information och forskning inom ämnet luftkvalitet och hälsa i formThis thesis summarizes research within the subject of air quality and health in residential and public buildings. The work examines health effects and the relationship with ventilation systems, airflow rates, carbon dioxide, airborne particles and radon.

I takt med att hållbarhet blivit en allt viktigare faktor i konsumtionsbeslut har även användningen av miljöpåståenden i marknadsföring ökat. Många företag framhåller sina produkter som "miljövänliga" eller "hållbara", men långt ifrån alla sådana påståenden har vetenskaplig grund. Fenomenet, känt som grönmålning, innebär att företag skapar en missvisande bild av sin miljöpåverkAs sustainability has become an increasingly important factor in consumer decision-making, the use of environmental claims in marketing has also risen. Many companies promote their products as "environmentally friendly" or "sustainable," yet not all such claims are based on scientific evidence. The phenomenon known as greenwashing occurs when businesses create a misleading impr
Bakgrund: Maximal syreupptagningsförmåga (VO2max) är ett centralt mått för bedömning av aerob kapacitet och kardiovaskulär hälsa. Gold standard för mätning av VO2max är genom test av maximal belastning. Dessa tester är ofta tidskrävande, dyra och inte särskilt anpassade till en stor del av befolkningen, exempelvis de med kardiovaskulära sjukdomar eller de med restriktioner kring hög fysisk belastn

The amount of people in Sweden that studies on a higher level has increased a fair amount during the period 1990-2020. With a higher level of education, the graduates expect to be compensated for the time spent, with, for instance, a higher salary. Although during the same time studied, data and statistics show a negative trend regarding the profitability of the education, meaning that graduates r

The increasing focus on lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) in the context of electrification of transport sector has raised concerns about their high costs, resource and energy demands, environmental impact, and social supply chain risks. To address these challenges and maximize the value of LIBs throughout their lifecycle, circular economy (CE) strategies, such as reusing and repurposing, are being exp
There is a need to closer characterise the molecular changes associated with progression from low to high mortality stage cutaneous T cell lymphoma. This has been challenging since there is high inter-patient heterogeneity in the genetics and transcriptomics of the malignant T cell populations. Modern technology has enabled single-cell resolution as well as spatially guided cell selection for whol

This comes with numerous human rights violations, to which the investments contribute. The prevalence of human rights and the conditionality for it in investment treaties has been discussed by scholars and proven to be near

Frontex spelar en avgörande roll för att skydda mänskliga rättigheter genom sin direkta kontakt med migranter. Denna studie undersöker hur Frontex beskriver risker för migranter och hur denna beskrivning har förändrats under det senaste decenniet. Studien analyserar tre av Frontex årliga riskanalysrapporter genom en kvalitativ innehållsanalys med en teoretisk ram om mänsklig säkerhet. Resultaten vFrontex plays a crucial role in protecting human rights through its direct contact with migrants. This study examines how Frontex describes risks to migrants and how this description has changed over the past decade. The study analyses three of Frontex's annual risk analysis reports through a qualitative content analysis with a theoretical framework on human security. The results show that Fro
Genom en analys av rättspraxis visar studien på skillnad i hur domstolar bedömer straffansvaret. Kravet på kunskap eller medvetenhet om prostitutionen har visat sig vara centralt för att fastställa straffrättsligt ansvar, men tolkningen av vad som utgör ett främjande varierar mellan olika fall. Till exempel anser vissa domar att det är tillräckligt att medvetet bidra till en partners prostitution,This paper examines the criminal liability for procuration under Swedish law, with a particular focus on cases where prostitution occurs within cohabitation or marriage.

This paper highlights the legal challenges that arise when everyday activities within close relationships - such as childcare or household chor
Consumers evaluate each step of their journey, which influences consumer’s expectations for further experiences and future intentions. Accordingly, past experiences are stored in consumers’ memory but each part of the journey will not be remembered. What drives further behaviours and intentions are the events of the experience that are considered more emotional and atypical, also called peaks. The
Tropical rainforests cover large parts of the Democratic Republic of Congo. In light of recent surges in deforestation in the country, protected areas are a decisive component of the national conservation strategy. Intended to preserve ecosystems, the way in which these areas are organized can have vital implications for people who reside within them through the changes they cause to environmental
Sweden, often listed as one of the world’s most gender equal countries, has one of the most gender segregated labour markets in the world, as well as one of the largest gender differences in regard to the number of days with parental leave. This paper investigates whether there is an interaction between occupational groups’ gender composition and the effect of average days with parental leave on t
