När arbetsbrist har uppstått har även frågan kring hur reglerna ska tolkas även uppstått. Detta har inte alltid varit tydligt i lagtext utan mycket av detta har Arbetsdomstolen fått tolka och det har gett prejudikat att följa. Där har reglerna kring 7 §och 22 § LAS utretts i domstolen och kring det har frågeställningar samt kritik uppkommit. Domstolen har fastslagit att 7 § LAS alltid ska utredas When a labor shortage occurs, the question of how the rules about labor should be interpreted has also arisen. The rules have not always been clear in the Swedish law but much of this has been interpreted by the Labor Court and it has given precedent to follow. There, the rules regarding 7 § and 22 § LAS have been investigated in the Labor Court and around it both questions and criticism have come

Delivery lead time (DLT) is seen as one of the most important service factors affecting the consumers willingness to fulfill a purchase within online retailing (Esperet al., 2003). The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the effect variations in the offered DLT have on customer conversion rate within e-commerce. This is done by analyzing historical online customer demand data from a case comp

This survey study analyzes correlations between disturbances in sleep, screen time, physical activity and perceived stress among young people at a secondary school in the south of Sweden. Bivariate correlations, simple linear regressions and a multiple linear regression analysis were made to try to understand the relationship between the dependent variable of sleep disturbances measured with the “

Big data is becoming ever increasingly important in every kind of scientific field, and data visualization is a big part of gaining an understanding of the data. Exploring data builds on intuition but exploring some data on a 2D screen can remove some of the intuition that is gained by exploring in 3 dimensions. Navigation of data visualization programs are often complex and slow to move through.

The project sets in Prishtina, Kosovo, and explores the oasis of a park in the middle of the intense city. The different movements created by us, has led to the interest of developing architectural fragments of stops to activate the park and further extend the public use of the National Library: a way of creating new movements in order to connect them two together. “A search for the path of total

In light of the growing “coherence” between humanitarianism and political actions in today’s world, does aid remain conducive to socio-economic improvement, or does it inhibit the ushering of much needed change? In the context of this study, the besieged population of Gaza organized large weekly demonstrations known as the Great Return March (2018-2020) to demand their basic political, economic an

Sedan år 2000 har 52% av företagen på Fortune-500 gått i konkurs på grund av bland annat ökad konkurrens och nya krav från kunder. Detta ställer större krav på hur företag arbetar med innovation som sägs vara en av de viktigaste faktorerna för företags framtida överlevnad. Dock visar det sig att omsätta teorin i praktiken är utmanande och inom forskningen saknas en enhetlig definition om vad innovThe average life expectancy for large companies on the fortune 500 list has declined rapidly since the 1950s. One major reason is the growing competition from new actors on the market. Innovation has become one of the most important competencies for companies to get ahead of the competition. The growing demand for companies to be innovative and at the same time operate their core business have dee
