Problem: Inom området Grön Human Resouce Management (HRM) har en begränsad mängd empiriska underlag producerats och forskare hävdar att ämnet kräver mer forskning, särskilt i relation till multinationella organisationer. Övervägande del av befintliga studier om grön HRM har undersökt området genom kvantitativa metoder och denna studie avser därför att studera området kvalitativt. För att utöka den empiriska forskningsgrunden har studien avgränsats till att studera multinationella organisationer (MNC) som är verksamma inom industrisektorn.   Syfte: Syftet är att skapa en ökad förståelse för hur

Plastic debris is an emerging environmental issue, with >10 million tons of plastics debris per annum entering the sea. Exposure to marine conditions facilitates the exponential fragmentation of plastic to micro-sized particles (microplastics). Marine and coastal sediments are a sink for microplastic pollution. Consequently, the ingestion of microplastics by a range of benthic marine invertebrates, including polychaete worms, has been reported in situ. Microplastics are vectors for priority pollutants capable of eliciting adverse health effects. However, the particle and chemical toxicity whic

Abstract:
The recent developments and improvements of instrumental methods for the analyses of the environmental contaminants, especially the persistent organic pollutants (POPs), have made it possible to detect and quantify these at very low concentrations in environmental and biotic matrices. The main objective of this thesis is to demonstrate the capability of the atmospheric pressure chemical ionization technique (APCI), using gas chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry for the determination of a wide range of environmental contaminants, including the POPs regulated by Stockholm Conventio

Abstract:
This thesis shows that illicit drug consumers in Vietnam who administer product via injection are vulnerable actors in a paradoxical global/glocal phenomenon rooted in historical complexities of globalisation. Therefore, responsibility for HIV risks should be shifted upstream from the level of individuals toward institutional processes that manufacture environments of harm. At the global level, the UN Milennium Development Goals do not provide the required level of leadership on HIV prevention for drug injectors. Association between globalisation, opiates and blood-born disease in Vietnam is n

Abstract:
Human Resource Management (HRM) is a critically important function that contributes to organizational performance (Bowen & Ostroff, 2004; Leroy, Anseel, Gardner, & Sels, 2015). Its presence in an organization is influenced by the organization’s leadership style/s (Vermeeren, Kuipers, & Steijn, 2014). In the Middle East, the notion of leadership has often been associated with an authoritarian – or directive - style of control (Dorfman, Javidan, Hanges, Dastmalchian, & House, 2012; House, Hanges, Javidan, Dorfman, & Gupta, 2004). But there has been limited empirical research to establish this no
