Ekonomisk kompensation vid föräldraledighet, vadå? Utifrån arbetsgivarens perspektiv

Sammanfattning: The purpose with this essay was to analyse the view of parental leave in the public and private labour market. How does the economical compensation affect the parent's use of parental leave, with focus on the fathers "earmarked" months? Were there any differences in private companies and public organisations? We chose to look at past research and theories about father/men's usage of "60 day parental leave" from a point of gender and equality perspective. In regard to our questions we preformed qualitative, semi structural interviews. We picked people at random to interview at both private companies and public organisations that had or had not extra economical compensations except what the social insurance office paid during parental leave. The results in economical compensation between the public and private labour market shows that there is a difference between those two parts.
