  • The safety costs of contingent work: Evidence from Minnesota
    Journal of Labor Research, 2001
    Co-Authors: Yong-seung Park, Richard J. Butler
    Abstract:

    We find that workers’ compensation costs for leased/Staff Agency workers are about three times higher than for regular full-time workers. This differential grows even wider when controlling for worker characteristics. Authors give a number of reasons for this result, including claimsreporting moral hazard on the part of contingent work-ers. We also present results on claim denials by work status, which seems to support the cost model.

  • Case history discourse. A rhetoric of troublesome youngsters and faceless treatment
    European Journal of Social Work, 2015
    Co-Authors: David Wästerfors, Malin Åkerström
    Abstract:

    In numerous social control settings, Staff routinely write case histories on clients to assist colleagues and authorities in treatment decisions. In this article, we examine how such institutional writing constructs ‘working versions’ of youngsters, portraying their objects of care as personally troublesome. Simultaneously, the institution is portrayed as facelessly, uniformly and collectively remedying their behaviour. Using material from a centre for juvenile delinquents in Sweden, we analyse three discursive techniques that accomplish this documentary reality: (1) trouble zooming, (2) mood notes and (3) deflecting Staff Agency. We also reflect on the social conditions for the recurrent rhetoric.
