- The present study was undertaken in order to examine the differences between occupations in the Swedish labour market with respect to the risk for men and women of leaving working life prematurely. The project was carried out as a population study employing methodology used in demographics to predict life length at birth. Here, calculations of expected remaining work-life length were based on the exits from working life. The study was based on the Swedish national labour statistics, covering all employees who had an occupational definition in 2006 and who were in the age range 35–64 years during the study period 2007–2010. There was a clear socio-economic divide in exit patterns, comparing blue- and white-collar jobs. The differences between the highest and the lowest risk jobs exceeded 4.5 years among both men and women. In the blue-collar occupational groups there were 50 per cent or less ‘survivors’ still working at age 65; in many white-collar occupations there were more than 60 per cent. Men and women exited working life at the same age. Compared to a similar study carried out in 2006, the same socio-economic pattern prevails, but people now work longer in almost all occupations. Women exited working life 0.8 years earlier than men in 2006; this difference is now gone.

Säker barnmiljö i lantbruket : utmaningar och åtgärdsstrategier
- 2013
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Lantbrukare har en arbetsmiljö som förknippas med många skade- och hälsorisker. Gården är inte bara en arbetsplats, det är också en hemmiljö för hela lantbrukarfamiljen, inte minst barnen. Livet på landet innehåller många spännande möjligheter för barn och ungdomar, men det finns också många farliga platser och situationer då de kan skadas. Varje år skadas barn i lantbruksmiljön, ibland med dödlig utgång – detta ska inte behöva ske om det finns fungerande barntillsyn för de mindre barnen och säkra miljöer att vistas i. Denna skrift har sitt fokus på erfarenheter, idéer och möjligheter att skapa en trygg utemiljö för barn i en gårdsmiljö. Framställningen är medvetet något ”provocerande” – för att väcka tankar och diskussioner kring hur vi ska agera för att skapa en säker uppväxtmiljö för barn och ungdomar som bor på ett lantbruk.

- The proportion of elderly individuals in the population is increasing in most industrial countries. This demographic change increases the need of more people who work until an older age to maintain the welfare in the states. However, it is not clear if older employees are interested to in generally extend the working life to an older age. It is also not stated if managers in organizations are interested of extending their older employees working life. The overall aim of this study was to examine older employees own experience of their work situation and ageing at work. The aim was also to investigate their managers’ attitude to them as older employees. The investigation was conducted by focusing group interviews with employees aged 55 - 63 years, and with their mangers aged 40 - 63 years. The findings stated that the older employees’ consideration for an extend working life seemed to be based on their health and health problems in relation to their work situation; their personal economy; their managers attitude to them as elderly and the possibility to social inclusion at work; and their possibilities for self-crediting activities at work despite their age. The managers seem to have a positive attitude to some of the older employees’ experience knowledge, if that was in the same direction as their own interest. Otherwise the mangers saw the older employees as problem and obsoleted. The managers were also negative to older employees who got health problems which effect the work production negatively. The older workers in this study described managers’ importance to if they want to work in an extended working life. However, the managers seem not to understand their own importance in this and were not interested to keep all elderly in an extended working life.
