Totalt 84 personer, inom samma organisation, fördelade över två avdelningar med olika arbetsuppgifter - besvarade en enkätundersökning, om stress, coping och arbetsfaktorer. Resultatet av undersökningen visar på en tendens att de respondenter som använder sig av ett fåtal copingstrategier har en lägre skattad stressnivå, (borderline-signifikans), samt att avdelning inte påverkar antalet använda copingstrategier (dvs. ingen interaktionseffekt mellan antalet använda copingstrategier och avdelning). Resultatet visar även att arbetsfaktorerna, vilka delades upp i fyra kategorier; otydlig organisation och konflikter, individuella krav och engagemang, inflytande på arbetet samt konflikt mellan arbete och fritid, predicerar den skattade stressnivån och speciellt individuella krav och engagemang var den kategori som påverkade den skattade stressnivån.Nyckelord:.

The method also had a hermeneutical approach, which means that we made different interpretations based on the reference framework and the empirics.After the study had been carried out, we concluded that all evidence from this essay suggested that even small businesses need an internal control to protect their business.
