Undersökning av tjänstemän inom Karlstad kommun.
AbstractThe purpose of this study is to examine whether the individual influence at the working place leads to the perception of decreased stress. Also I looked at whether stress and individual influence is affected by the employees age, sex or employment years. Previous research shows that individual influence decreases stress but strangely enough do the research show that individual influence seem to decrease in today?s work environment. This research is quantitative with questionnaires, answered by 74 civil servants working in a department in the municipality of Karlstad. No correlations were found between stress and individual influence. However the result showed that the levels of stress were low and the level of individual influence were moderate which could imply that you only need a mediocre level of influence for the stress level to drop.
