Studien har genom en kvalitativ fallstudie på Karlstads kommuns projekt om attstarta sitt employer branding beskrivit hur employer branding kan bedrivas i projektform.Employer branding handlar om hur företag och offentliga organisationerkan arbeta med sitt varumärke som arbetsgivare gentemot sina nuvarande ochframtida anställda. Genom sex halvstrukturerade intervjuer med projektbeställare,projektledare och projektdeltagare framkom att projektets resultat har varit lyckat.Vi har genom denna studie kommit fram till följande slutsatser:1. Att arbetet skedde i projektform signalerade att uppgiften var viktig för organisationen,vilket skapade effektivitet i arbetet och underlättade för enhetssamarbete.Inga nackdelar med att arbeta i projektform kunde hittas.2. Projektarbetsformen kan ha varit en förutsättning för att Karlstads kommunsemployer branding skulle lyckas och få spridning ut i organisationen. Genom attde lyckades få förankring visade man inför hela organisationen att employer brandingär ett viktigt område att arbeta aktivt med, men förankringen bidrar också tillatt förändringen inte går för fort.3.

The average age of the working population in Sweden is increasing, along with the number of Retirements. Meanwhile, the number of people entering the labour market is declining. In order to avoid a loss of key skills and competences because of the resulting labour gap, and to ensure future economic growth, it is vital to utilise the aging labour force more efficiently. Nevertheless, many Swedish companies are inefficient in managing their aging workforce. In fact, it has emerged that senior workers in Sweden are discriminated against their age and not attractive on the labour market.

Denna studie syftar till att undersöka hur en medelstor kommun kan arbeta strategiskt med problematiken gällande kompetensförlust samt att vara en attraktiv arbetsgivare inför kommande pensionsavgångar. Vidare syftar studien till att, utifrån resultatet, arbeta fram ett förslag till HR-strategi för den problematik de förestående pensionsavgångarna för med sig. För att få svar på våra undersökningsfrågor har vi utfört en fallstudie i Falu kommun och för denna använt oss av semistrukturerade intervjuer med fyra personer i chefsposition och en mångfaldskommunikatör, samt en fokusgrupp bestående av fyra medarbetare från HR-avdelningen. Detta gav oss flera perspektiv på problematiken, vilket vi anser stärker tillförlitligheten i resultatet. I efterhand kan vi dock se att ett större antal intervjupersoner hade varit att föredra, detta för att få fler medarbetares tankar och åsikter om ämnet.

This degree project is based on my personal relation and engagement to the small-scaled cultural landscape. My viewpoint is the village Torpa in Östergötland. My observations of the changes and development together with the stories of the village people has lead me to the questioning about the future prospects of the small-scaled cultural landscape. The rationalization of the society and our urban culture has lead to big changes in the cultural landscape and the people have reduced to a small crowd. Fewer and fewer hands are managing the small-scaled cultural landscape and fewer and fewer young people have connection to this kind of landscape and its management.
