Systematiskt arbetsmiljöarbete på digitala plattformar - Hur Arbetsmiljöverkets föreskrift, AFS 2001:1, påverkar de moderna plattformsföretagen

Denna uppsats undersöker förhållandet mellan plattformsföretag och arbetsmiljöreglerna i AFS 2001:1. Framväxten av delningsekonomin har inneburit att traditionella begrepp som arbetsgivare och arbetstagare, anpassade för bilaterala företagsstrukturer, har ställts på sin spets och att gränsdragningsproblematiken mellan ett anställningsförhållande och uppdragsförhållande blivit ett faktum i och med This thesis aims to examine the relationship between platform companies and the working environment regulation in AFS 2001:1. The development of the sharing economy has meant that traditional concepts like employer and employee have been questioned and that the differentiation between employment and self- employment have become more vague. The aim is primarily to discuss whether or not the platfor

When Synthetic Actors Suggest: Interaction Order of Recommender Systems on Social Media Platforms

THE NEURODEGENERATION PROCESS IN THE STRIATUM OF MICE EXPOSED TO OBESOGENIC DIETS

Obesity and diabetes are known to impact brain function and alter metabolism. Studies in rodents show that consumption of high fat and high sugar diets lead to brain dysfunction affecting memory and cognition, and increases risk of cerebro-vascular and neurodegenerative disorders. Striatum, which is involved in reward-based behaviour and motor control, undergoes changes on exposure to such diets l

Queer workers and workspaces: Stories about emotions and embodied experiences of LGBTQIA people in work-related spaces

The aim of this study is to map and investigate the embodied experiences of LGBTQIA people in work-related spaces.

Skyll på den artificiella intelligensen! - En utredning av skadeståndsansvar, utifrån skadeståndslagen, vid skador orsakade av artificiell intelligens

Världen befinner sig i en ny industriell revolution som drivs av den artificiella intelligensen. Den artificiella intelligensen genererar enastående effekter i samhället. Däremot, vad händer dagen den artificiella intelligensen orsakar skada? Denna revolution har därav aktualiserat en rad olika skadeståndsrättsliga frågor. I detta arbete utreds vad som förutsätts för ett skadeståndsrättsligt ansvaCurrently, there is an ongoing industrial revolution driven by artificial intelligence. The artificial intelligence is an exceptional asset to society. However, the artificial intelligence has raised several tort law-related questions. This essay investigates the requirements that need to be fulfilled for an injured party to receive damages when damages are sustained to property or the human body.

Svällande brandstopp i fasadsystem - En experimentell studie

Blöta brandstopp, fungerar det i verkligheten? I luftspalter kan det monteras brandstopp som ska stoppa en brandspridning genom att de sväller vid en temperatur och stryper igen utrymmet som annars skulle agera som en skorsten. Under exempelvis en regnig svensk höst kommer det bli fuktigt i luftspalten och det kan till och med rinna vatten i luftspalten vilket är problematiskt för brandstoppet. Since many new techniques and new materials have been introduced in the construction of facades there is a need to better understand the behavior when exposed to a fire. Recent facade fires involving rainshield claddings have displayed major consequences regarding the personal safety of the occupants and towards an economic loss. More understanding is therefore needed to better prevent fires such

Brandrisker med hållbara byggnader - en litteraturstudie

The purpose of the report is to describe the development of green and environmentally friendly building solutions, and the awareness of fire safety when new materials and systems are chosen to make the buildings sustainable. The paper describes methods of certifying sustainable buildings and discusses fire safety in green building solutions rewarded in certifications. It also describes and discuss
