Research

  • One of my main research areas concerns how leadership in the workplace is
    associated with stress, health, and health-related consequences among
    employees. In 2014-2017 I led a project financed by FORTE investigating the
    work situation, health and career development of female managers. During
    2017-2019, I ran two projects investigating the causes of increased mental
    ill-health and sickness absence among employees working in female-dominated
    industries and occupations. The projects focus on organisational and
    psychosocial work factors as well as factors in unpaid domestic work. In
    2019-2021 I am leading a project financed by FORTE on antecedents and health
    consequences of gender-based harassment. I have also led a systematic
    research review on health consequences of physical, psychological, and
    gender-based workplace violence, commissioned by FORTE. I am part of the
    steering group of the cohort study Swedish Longitudinal Occupational Survey
    of Health (SLOSH), at the Stress Research Institute, Stockholm University.

Teaching
