Abstract (Swedish)
Stress är en av de vanligaste orsakerna till arbetsrelaterade besvär i Sverige. Under de senaste årtiondena har stora förändringar skett på arbetsmarknaden. Digitala lösningar har bidragit till ett mer gränslöst arbete där arbetstagarna arbetar under flexiblare former. Det flexibla arbetet kan leda till att konflikt mellan arbete och privatliv uppstår. Fastighetsmäklare är ett yrke som i hög grad arbetar under former som kan uppfattas som flexibla. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka upplevelsen av stress bland fastighetsmäklare i kombination med flexibilitet, upplevd konflikt mellan arbete och privatliv. En enkät skickades ut till ett fastighetsmäklarföretag och deras kontor i Skåne. Totalt svarade 27 fastighetsmäklare på enkäten.... (More)

En enkät skickades ut till ett fastighetsmäklarföretag och deras kontor i Skåne. Totalt svarade 27 fastighetsmäklare på enkäten. Resultaten i studien påvisar att fastighetsmäklare arbetar under flexibla arbetsformer i hög utsträckning och att de till viss del upplever konflikt mellan arbete och privatliv. Upplevd stressnivå låg något över normeringsvärdena för Sveriges befolkning. Signifikanta könsskillnader fanns i upplevd stress, där kvinnor i högre grad upplever stress. En stark positiv korrelation mellan upplevd stress och konflikt mellan arbete och privatliv påvisades. En negativ korrelation fanns mellan upplevd flexibilitet och konflikt mellan arbete och privatliv. (Less)
Abstract
Strain is one of the most common causes for work- related problems in Sweden. During the last decades, there have been chances on the labor market. Digital solutions have contributed to more boundaryless work where employees work with more flexibility, potentially leading to a conflict between work and personal life. Real estate agent is a profession that works under conditions that could be perceived as flexible. The aim of this study was to examine perceived stress among real estate agents together with flexibility and conflict between work and personal life. A survey was sent to a real estate agency in Scania. A total of 27 real estate agents answered. The results of the study show that real estate agents have flexible working... (More)

The aim of this study was to examine perceived stress among real estate agents together with flexibility and conflict between work and personal life. A survey was sent to a real estate agency in Scania. A total of 27 real estate agents answered. The results of the study show that real estate agents have flexible working conditions to a great extent and that they sometimes experience a conflict between work and personal life. Perceived stress was somewhat over the normalization values for the Swedish population. Significant sex differences were detected in perceived stress, were women perceived stress to a higher extent than men. A strong positive correlation between perceived stress and conflict between work and personal life was found. A negative correlation was found between perceived flexibility and conflict between work and personal life. (Less)
