Bemanningsarbetstagare löper dubbelt så stor risk att utsättas för arbetsrelaterade olyckor. Trots att lagstiftningen ska vara heltäckande på EU-nivå såväl som på nationell nivå i fråga om fördelningen av arbetsmiljöansvaret mellan bemanningsföretag och kundföretaget, riskerar arbetsmiljöansvaret för bemanningsarbetstagare att hamna mellan stolarna. Uppsatsen syftar därför till att föra resonemangThe risk of being exposed to occupational accidents is twice as high among temporary agency workers.

Skiljeförfarande har sedan en lång tid tillbaka använts inom näringslivet som en ersättning till en traditionell domstolsprocess.

Uppsägningen är, enligt samma paragraf i LAS, inte sakligt grundad om det kan anses skäligt att kräva att arbetsgivaren omplacerar arbetstagaren till annat arbete på företaget. I denna uppsats har jag undersökt hur långt arbetsgivarens arbetsledningsrätt sträcker sig när det gäller omplacering och uppsägningar på grund av In order for a dismissal to be valid, objective grounds are required according to the 7§ LAS. According to the same paragraph in LAS, the dismissal is not objectively justified if it can be considered reasonable to require that the employer reassign the employee to other work at the company.

The question on how to take care of older persons and support them when getting older might be more relevant now than ever, as the population over 60 years old is expected to grow with 40 percent in the coming 10 years.
