Current research

Tomas Lindmark is involved in a research project investigating staff and managers' working conditions, well-being, and organisational trust in special housing for the elderly under different regimes.

The project has conducted a systematic review of the field and examined procurement contracts. It also included interviews with frontline managers and a survey of care staff. The project is expected to contribute in-depth knowledge about the opportunities and barriers faced by staff and whether there are differences between different regimes due to marketisation. The project is funded by the University of Gävle and is expected to be completed in 2024.
