Assessment methods for corporateresponsibility on the fashion scene : a case study of Hennes & Mauritz, Lindex, Kappahl and MQ
Assessing the outcome of corporate responsibility is often argued to be complicated due to long-term effects and qualitative aspects. Epstein (2008, p.261) establishes that: ?Though many think that sustainability is too difficult to measure, companies have found that unless the impacts are measured, they are commonly ignored in the resource allocation process?. Corporate responsibility is often referred to as a business case, i.e., that social and environmental concern add value to the business (Heikkurinen, 2010; Porter & van der Linde, 1995). Hence, for corporate responsibility to be a business case a strategy, corporate structure and systems, programmes and actions linked to performance measures need to be in place to assess the outcome; environmental, social as well as financial.
Skall det ekologiska klädesplagget tillgodose annorlunda eller likadana värden än det konventionella klädesplagget?
Med vår uppsats har vi försökt undersöka vad kvinnliga konsumenter i åldern 20- 29 eftersträvar att tillgodose för värden vid konsumtion av ekologiska ? och konventionella kläder. Vi har försökt ge modekedjorna en inblick i hur de kan utveckla utformningen av ekologiska kläder, genom att studera ifall konsumenternas eftersträvade värden avseende ekologiska kläder liknar eller skiljer sig åt från värden avseende konventionella kläder. För att finna värden som kan vara väsentliga att tillgodose vid konsumtion av kläder har vi använt oss av means-end chain modellen, som applicerats på åtta kvinnliga respondenter. Detta har följts av en enkät där vi med en variant av List of Values (LOV) har studerat om det existerar en skillnad i vilka värden konsumenten vill tillfredställa vid ett köp av ett konventionellt- och ekologiskt plagg..
KOM LOSS En studie av Läs- och skrivstugans verksamhet på tre bibliotek i Västra Götalandregionen
The purpose of this Master Thesis is to investigate whether the technical service available in the "Reading and Writing Corner" has an influence on the total quality of service in a public library. This service is intended to give sensory/print-handicapped persons access to information. The title KOM LOSS is a Swedish expression for "come on" and LOSS is short for reading and writing support. I have chosen to study three libraries in the region of Västra Götaland, Sweden. The thesis examines total quality from the aspects of goal steering, accessibility, education and marketing.
Skogsbruksplanen - ett hjälpmedel i vattenförvaltningsfrågor? : en intervjustudie
After the mandatory rules for clearing was removed in 1994, the clearing area has increased in Sweden. After the storms Gudrun and Per, the areas became planted with new plants, mainly spruce, but also other tree species. Storm areas are now being invaded by naturally rejuvenated birch in the tilling tracks. Since the birch often is initially growing faster than the spruce it is inhibiting the growth and is also damaging the spruce.
The purpose of this thesis is to study the new brush saw with chain and compare it with the conventional clearing saw, mainly in terms of performance and ergonomics. The results show that the new brush saw with chain is very good in almost all clearing operations compared to the conventional clearing saw.
Mjukvarukvalitet i öppen programvara - en explorativ och kvalitativ studie av uppfattningar om mjukvarukvalitet
Open source software has recently been discussed, not least in media as a revolution in IT. A number of advantages have been listed in changing proprietary software into open source software. Examples of such pros are no expenses for license fees and improved efficiency. In spite of this, few users have made this change. One of the reasons is a distrust of the quality in open source software.
Förtolkning inför skogsbruksplanläggning med laserdata (NNH), eller traditionell flygbildstolkning?
The purpose of this study was to investigate produced laser data from the new national height model's airborne laser scanning in Sweden, what quality it has and whether it can be used for forest management planning. From airborne laser scanning one can obtain information on forest variables such as tree species, height, diameter and basal area. Norra skogsägarna is the principal employer of this project and they wanted know to the quality of the laser data which needs to cope with their standards. If the laser data the quality required it can replace some of the operations performed by field planners.
To examine the quality of the produced laser data a control tax assessment has been performed in 30 forest departments. This was done in an objective manner.
Klistret i klustret : En undersökande studie av ansamlingen av GIS-relaterad verksamhet i Gävleregionen
Recent years there has been discussed how the critical situation in the housing market threatens the Stockholm region's growth. The thesis objective is to examine whether there is a scientific link between the lack of housing supply and growth. The thesis also intends to identify solutions for increased housing construction, for instance by examining the conditions for a greater regional perspective and influence on the region's housing supply. The thesis empirical study is based on semi-structured interviews with representatives from the Government, municipalities and the housing industry.In Sweden, research on the relationship between housing shortages and growth has not been conducted to that extent it can be said to exist scientific evidence regarding the growth threat. However, in Britain and the U.S, empirical studies show that a lack of housing supply has hindered growth through negative impact on countries' gross domestic product.
Intern kontroll och management override ur ett revisorsperspektiv
De senaste åren har det kommit flera regelverk som berör bland annat internkontroll, två exempel är den amerikanska SarbanesOxleyAct och SvenskKod för Bolagsstyrning. Båda dessa regelverk har utsett styrelsen ochledningen som de huvudansvariga för företagets interna kontroll. Revisorerska sedan testa den interna kontrollen i företaget för att se att den fungerar.Svenska revisorer har Revisionsstandarder (RS) som de ska följa i sitt arbete.RS 240 och RS 400 behandlar intern kontroll. Av RS framgår det att detfinns vissa begränsningar i den interna kontrollen och revisorn måste framförallt granska de områden där risken för oegentligheter och fel är störst. Deområden som har uppmärksammats av RS är bland annat att ledningen gårförbi etablerade kontroller.
Datormedierad kommunikation i politikens tjänst : En studie av attityder till datormedierad kommunikation
This essay examines the recent electoral success of the Sweden Democrats (SD) in the Swedish municipal election in 2006 and 2010. By using statistical methods it aims to explain which of three contradicting theoretical frameworks best can explain how a populist radical right party could penetrate one of the most stable party systems in the world. The theoretical approaches tested in this essay are: a demand-side, an external supply-side and an internal supply-side approach. By using theoretically anchored proxies to determine the effect of the contradicting theoretical approaches this essay concludes that the internal supply-side explanation measuring the local party organizational ability of the SD had the most substantial effect when it comes to explaining their recent electoral success in the Swedish municipalities, as opposed to a more commonly believed demand-side driven explanation..
VIX: ett mått på marknadsosäkerhet : Hur påverkas VIX av schemalagda nyhetspubliceringar?
This study is based on interviews with heads of unit, care staff and senior representatives from a total of six people. We have in this study directed our focus on care quality in the elderly as a concept in development. It appears, when the elderly do not have any dependents, it is even more important that staff supports some extra where no relatives are involved.Quality of life is the broader concept of good quality care and where a good quality of care is a necessary condition for a good quality of life. According to the social services care is the target that older people will live a good life and be allowed to live in a safe environment, which we intend to investigate in this study. Opportunity for greater influence should now be given to older people and their families on how interventions should be designed and implemented.

Hantering av elektronik komponenter under Last Time Buy
The purpose of this thesis project was to study how different companies are working with LastTime Buy and through that study propose improved ways of working with this for Scania CVAB. The project aimed at studying the work processes from three different perspectives:decision models, quality aspects and liability aspects between companies.To study this, qualitative interviews with one or several representatives from differentcompanies that are affected by or involved in Last Time Buy were used. Representatives wereselected partly from Original Equipment Manufacturers, suppliers, component manufacturersand companies offering third part solutions for Last Time Buy. The companies also reflecteddifferent industries. The interviews aimed to create an understanding for the methods used atthe different companies but also the ways of thinking and the knowledge behind the choice ofthese working methods.The analysis shows that the Original Equipment Manufacturers used very similar decisionmodels for Last Time Buy, but that external factors or the company strategy made them reachdifferent results.
Spansk skogssnigel (Arion lusitanicus) i ensilerat vallfoder : betydelse för fodrets näringsinnehåll och hygieniska kvalitet
This work is about silage contaminated with slugs (Arion lusitanicus). The hypothesis was: Do slugs affect the nutritional value and hygiene quality of silage? During the winter season 2007/2008 silages were discarded in big amounts due to the contamination of slugs. Both the Swedish Farmer Association (LRF) and the National Veterinary Institute (SVA) received phone calls from farmers and animal owners about contaminated silage. The Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) and SVA decided to initiate this project as a master thesis.
