Talented and committed employees are important resources for a company?s competitiveness. With the escalating competition for competent employees, a strong employer brand has come to play an increasingly important role as a means of attracting employees with a desirable profile.

Denna uppsats har till syfte att redogöra för Generation Y och vad Karlstads kommun bör tänka på i kommande rekrytering av denna målgrupp. Generation Y trädde in på arbetsmarknaden runt millennieskiftet och förväntas nu ta över efter den stora andel äldre som snart lämnar sina arbeten och blir pensionärer. Till följd av att det föreligger ett stort rekryteringsbehov inom kommunal verksamhet under kommande tioårsperiod såg vi här ett problemområde som var intressant att forska vidare i. I arbetet med att klargöra attribut som är signifikativt för just Generation Y föll det sig naturligt att också se vad som kännetecknar tidigare generationer för att på så sätt reda ut vad som skiljer dessa åt. Studien är uppbyggd på en kvalitativ intervjustudie som utgörs av sju halvstrukturerade forskningsintervjuer.

During the past decades the competition for skilful employees has increased and companies and organizations compete to attract the right people. The Swedish municipalities and country councils need to recruit 420 000 new employees before 2020, but have a limited budget to promote themselves as attractive employers. To find a solution, many of the municipalities have started to work with fundamental values to become more attractive employers and to inspire employees to use word-of-mouth to recommend them. There are no empirical studies of how successful this strategy is, and the purpose of this thesis is to show if there are significant correlations between the fundamental values, the employer's attractiveness and word-of-mouth. The results of the study are based on a survey with 1996 answers from employees in three different municipalities in Stockholm, Sweden.

AbstractTitle: Equalis quality assures the communication. A qualitative study of superiors and co-workers view on the internal communication.Number of pages: 39 (42 including enclosures)Author: Ia AppelbergTutor: Else NygrenCourse: Media and Communication Studies CPeriod: Autumn term 2010University: Division of Media and Communication, Department of Information Science, Uppsala UniversityPurpose: Superiors and co-workers view on the internal communication is studied with the purpose to identify whether their opinions correspond with one another, and what differences and similarities there might be.Method: This study is based on qualitative interviews with superiors and co-workers, and complements with the use of observations.Main results: The results indicate that superiors and co-workers agree on several aspects of the communication, such as the fact that the organizational communication is disorderly and lack clear rules and guidelines. Superiors believe that the organization has a corresponding view on the internal communication, while co-workers are convinced this is not the case. This despite the fact that the results in the end show that both groups overall have very similar opinions on several of the elements in question. Another mutual opinion is that both groups wish to receive more information about current events and such.

The theory chapter is based on a model about brand identity, ?Brand Identity Prism? (Kapferer, 2008, s.183). This model contains six elements which we have supplemented with theories about personal branding. This because the focus and theory on a person's brand identity is almost non-existent. The purpose of the study is therefore to examine how editors at fashion magazines are working with their brand identity in the personal brand and thereby create an understanding of the identity function.

Employer branding, eller arbetsgivarvarumärke som det heter på svenska, handlar om att rätt människor ska attraheras, rekryteras och vilja stanna kvar i ett företag. Ett starkt employer brand är något som har blivit allt viktigare för företagen i kampen om värdefulla andelar på marknaden.  Studier har visat att anställda som är engagerade och trivs på sitt arbete också presterar bättre, vilket leder till ökad produktion och lönsamhetsfördelar. Många företag är inte medvetna om eller uppdaterade vad gäller sitt arbetsgivarerbjudande, det vill säga den anledning som arbetsgivaren ger till nuvarande och potentiella anställda att arbeta för denne. Det kan vara svårt att fastställa vilka områden som behöver utvecklas i företaget och vilka målgrupper som bör prioriteras. Tillgängliga mätmetoder för att få klarhet gällande nuvarande employer brand saknas, vilket har bidragit till studiens syfte att skapa ett mätverktyg för att utvärdera ett företags arbetsgivarvarumärke gentemot nuvarande anställda.

During almost two years this group was observed, several semi-structured interviews were conducted and a specific incident was analyzed.

This thesis is a discourse analysis of six rape trials, with the intention to analyze how the plaintiffs?? resistance is described. The overall aim is to investigate whether there are forms of resistance that the courts find more desirable and if there are any rules for how resistance should manifest itself. I will also investigate how the rape is itself described by the plaintiff and courts, respectively. I will analyze how this affects the understanding and attitude toward what has happened.

During the last years, the importance of sourcing in firms has increased. Globalization, fierce competition and an increased level of outsourcing are common explanations to why firms have highlighted the potential to realize savings and the value creation that the Purchasing department can generate. One trend that follows in parallel with globalization is an increased pressure from society on firms to take responsibility for the impact that its products and services have on the environment. This responsibility creates even more attention as outsourcing involves trade with suppliers in low wage countries, where the level of environmental and social responsibility is not always satisfying. The Purchasing department, the firm?s interface with suppliers should therefore, together with the firm?s Environmental department, play a key role in the firm?s contribution towards sustainable development.

Syfte: Syftet med vår uppsats är att ta reda på hur Landstinget Blekinge arbetar med den generationsväxling som pågår och det svaga intresset hos den yngre generationen samt hur det faktiska arbetet med att vara en attraktiv arbetsgivare ser ut, både inom och utanför organisationen, för att undvika en brist på arbetskraft. Vidare vill vi även undersöka om den bild teorier framställer av den nya generationen skiljer sig mot uppfattningen som chefer inom Landstinget Blekinges har. Syftet är också att se hur väl Landstinget Blekinge arbetar med att bli en attraktiv arbetsgivare i jämförelse med SKL:s bild och därmed bidra till ökad medvetenhet kring arbetet med generationsväxlingen samt de utmaningar och svårigheter som kan finnas i samband med den. Metod: Undersökningen är baserad på en kvalitativ, abduktiv metod och semistrukturerade intervjuer med tre personalchefer, en förvaltningschef samt kommunikationsdirektören inom Landstinget Blekinge. Resultat: Våra resultat visar att Landstinget Blekinge har en skriftlig varumärkesstrategi för vad som behöver göras.
