Abstract [en]

Conscious development of attractive work increases the possibilities to keep, motivate and develop current co-workers and to attract new competent personnel. Supportive Service Companies (SSC) such as Occupational Health Services, organization consultants, etc. can help the companies in their development. Theme Working Life at Högskolan Dalarna has together with companies developed concrete methods and processes for more attractive work. Altogether 34 persons from 13 SSC participated in four seminars and six method courses. A follow-up was made after 1½ year by 25 interviews with the participants. The methods were seen as impressive, concrete and useful. More than half of the participants had used some method with at least one client. The methods worked well in commercial use and could easily be combined with other methods. The “approach” of the methods, the ability to engage and motivate the employees and the concrete results were appreciated by the SSC and the clients.
