Some of its effect have been linked to performance outcomes according to past reviews and as a result, there are more suggestions on the need to study how various organisations manage their cultural diversity. Universities as an organisation has also blended in the internationalisation practice through human resources and diverse employees to form a part of the economic globalisation.

I takt med att medellivslängden ökar och att andelen personer med utländsk bakgrund växer behöver organisationer ha kunskap om hur de ska hantera mångfald. Detta för att de ska kunna ta tillvara på alla mänskliga resurser samt för att möta framtidens arbetskraftsbehov. Piteå Kommuns socialtjänst står idag inför denna utmaning och har valt att aktivt satsa på mångfald. Syftet med denna studie var därmed att undersöka hur chefer och bemanningsassistenter beskriver begreppet mångfald, hur de praktiskt arbetar med mångfald idag samt undersöka vilka krav de upplever finns på dem i mångfaldsarbetet.

The concept of social loafing is important with regard to organizational effectiveness particularly as organizations are relying on teams as a means to drive productivity. The composition of those teams is likely to reflect the current movement of racial and ethnic minorities in the work place.

Abstract:
Conventional research on workplace incivility has shown how damaging the perceptions of workplace racism can be on employee well-being, especially minorities at an individual level within organizations. Consequentially, the prolonged exposure to racial discrimination through experience and observation has resulted in racial trauma, which increases an individual’s sensitivity to racial discrimination. One result of this is the hostile attribution of racial discrimination in the workplace. Research on the impact of racial discrimination in the workplace has shown that there are severe negative i
