Office in a Closet
Get More
Subscribe to Martha Stewart LivingIntroduction
When Martha renovated her house in Westport, she wanted to include a home-office space near the kitchen -- the center of activity. She didn't want the office equipment to be obtrusive, however, so she placed it in an existing closet. The shelves holding Martha's computer monitor, keyboard, fax, and other equipment roll out to create a comfortable workspace, but when her work is done, she can close the door and entertain in the same room.
Carpenter Jim Cummings installed a similar office space in Martha's television-studio library and offers this advice: If you're thinking of making a closet office at home, first determine what equipment you will need, then make sure that the closet provides enough space for all your components. Martha needed her closet to house a computer hard drive, keyboard, monitor, printer, and fax, as well as a telephone and lamp. Jim measured the dimensions of the closet and the components, then created a sketch of how everything would fit within the space.
According to Jim's plan, Martha's hard drive and fax rest on the bottom shelf of the closet; the keyboard and mouse share a shelf above that. Directly above the keyboard is the shelf for the monitor. A shelf above that contains a square cutout to accommodate the monitor but has space on either side for a phone, a lamp, and various office supplies. The top shelf holds the printer. All shelves slide in and out, except the one with the monitor cutout.
When determining how your equipment will fit in your closet, keep in mind that the standard placement for a desktop or keyboard is 30 inches from the floor. You can adjust this figure to suit your needs; the keyboard should rest at or just below elbow level when you're sitting. Plan to arrange your monitor so that the top of the screen is just below eye level. Make sure you leave the proper amount of clearance above each piece of equipment you install, or you could jeopardize its lifespan.
Mounting existing shelves on slides is a fairly easy task. The exception is if your closet has moldings around its frame that would prevent shelves from sliding out; in this case, you may need to use an adjustable peg-in-hole support system instead. Prefabricated peg-board and pegs are available at most home and hardware stores.
Choose slides whose length is as close as possible to the depth of your shelf so that the weight of the shelf is evenly distributed and the shelf can be pulled out as far as possible. Slides are rated by weight; for example, Jim chose slides with 100-pound ratings for the bottom shelf, which will hold the fax machine and hard drive -- both heavy items. If you're using preexisting shelves, you'll have to decrease their width by about an inch (read installation instructions for the precise amount) to accommodate the slide hardware on either side. Use a jigsaw to cut the wood, then sand the edges with 100-grit sandpaper to smooth. At this point, you may wish to paint or stain the shelf before screwing the slide brackets onto its sides.
Slide components are labeled CR, DR, CL, and DL (cabinet right, drawer right, cabinet left, and drawer left). To install slides, measure up from the floor on both sides, mark the closet wall with a pencil, position the appropriate slide, and sink in the screws with a drill. Screws are usually included when you purchase the slides; if you have to use longer or shorter ones for some reason, make sure their heads don't inhibit the closure of the slide. To get the most travel out of each glide, position it as far forward in the closet as possible; Jim installed his about 3/4 of an inch from the front of the closet.
Before you install your shelves, create an indentation in the back of each one to accommodate cords. Use a tape measure to find the midpoint at the back edge of the shelf, and mark it with a pencil. Then, using a hole saw, make a semicircular cut. If you don't have a hole saw, use a jigsaw to cut out a V.
You can make a special shelf for the keyboard with a fascia in front so that it can be pulled in and out easily, as well side fascias to hide bulky slide mounts. Jim uses 3/4 inch-thick poplar for these; for the sides, he cut pieces 2 inches wide and 1 1/2 inches shorter than the depth of the shelf (to accommodate the front fascia). Cut the front fascia 2 inches wide and as long as the shelf's width. To attach, turn the shelf over, measure and mark 3/8 inch in from each side edge, and apply glue to the top of each side piece. Place the two side pieces onto the shelf one at a time, flush with the back of the shelf. Use a speed square or a square wooden block to ensure that the sides are perfectly square, and clamp in place until the glue is dry. Then predrill and countersink four equally spaced screws onto each side fascia, and insert your screws. (Countersinking means carving out holes that your nail heads can sit in so they're hidden from view.) Glue and screw on the front fascia in the same manner.
Jim installed the keyboard shelf using slide mounts with ball bearings. These are a bit more expensive than standard slides, but as this shelf tends to receive heavier wear than the others, the extra expense pays off. The side fascias are recessed a bit, so the slide mounts will not be visible on the sides of the shelf.
Once all your shelves are in place, you can add your equipment to the closet and organize it as you wish. Martha lines the inside doors of her closet with cork, creating convenient bulletin boards, and uses flat tacks on the cork so that they will not obstruct the closing of the doors. A cordless phone minimizes clutter, and a small lamp provides the workspace with good lighting.

This looks great - I love the workspace-in-a-closet ideas. The only thing I'm not sure about is legroom - you have to be comfortable sitting at a computer for any length of time. Also, I've heard that the correct positioning for a computer screen is that the center of the screen should be level with your eyes - what it says above doesn't seem right.
TibbyToes21 Aug, 2008
I've turned my armoire into an office/workspace - what a great idea! I had an old french style armoire which I did a paint job on using pale heritage paints before making shelves out of MDF, which I painted in a deep crimson heritage acrylic paint (using 5 coats in total to give it a nice finish and durability). I lined the back of the armoire in a beautiful Laura Ashley print wallpaper, installed a power supply at the base of the armoire - I love it!!! Unfortunately, so does my husband.

Very Good TV
The viewing aspects of this led 3d HDTV are bad to the bone. Great picture, great resolution, great aesthetics.

Blown away by the features!!!
I am an engineer and am highly critical of some of today's technology. When I purchased my new Smart Tv , I wasn't sure what I was getting. I valued the Samsung brand but this was my first video product from them. I can truly say that's it's a stunning piece of techological craftmanship. Kudos+. I'm still discovering the features but what I have experienced so far, exceeds my expectations....

How to Protect Your Home With a Security Camera?
- Determine the purpose of your outdoor security camera: will you be monitoring to see who comes up to your front door or do you want to be able to watch all angles of the perimeter of your house and yard?
- Determine the view angle you need from your camera. In general, the wider the view the more the camera will record. This is particularly important if you will be using your camera to see who is approaching your front door and you want to be able to determine whether or not they are alone
- Determine the picture quality that you will need from your security camera and choose a camera that will provide it. While many screens are small and can use a lower resolution, a higher resolution will provide a clearer picture
- Choosing a wireless security camera? Choose a camera with a transmission range that will suit your needs; keep in mind that the walls of your home will reduce the range a wireless camera will have
- Planning to record the signal? Choose a camera that will broadcast to the system that you have chosen: closed circuit tv, your computer or a digital video recorder
- Do you want to have a camera that will be on all the time or do you want a camera that will start recording when movement is detected? Either way, a motion detector camera can make sure that you are able to record anything that happens
- Determine the size and type of security camera you are looking for. Do you need a camera that can zoom in, a camera that blends in or a camera that can record sound?
- Lastly, determine whether you want a camera that is monitored by a security company or not; if you do, be sure to choose the right company. Ask questions and get recommendations
How to Install an Outdoor Security Camera System?
- Select the type of connection you want; you can choose a wired or a wireless connection. Wireless systems are easier to install with no limitations on the distance between the devices and the monitors. Be aware, however, that wireless connections are subject to signal interference. If you choose to install a wired connection, it will require more work, but you won't have any signal interference. Wireless cameras are also battery-operated, so you will have to replace the batteries periodically. Wired cameras connect to the monitors, which run on the main power source
- Decide where you want your security camera. Place your camera in a position that will display the entire area you wish to view. Then, decide whether you want your camera visible or hidden. If you set up a wired camera system, hiding and wiring your device will be more difficult
- Drill holes for mounting the brackets. If you are setting up more than one camera, make sure you allow enough distance in between. Test your camera or cameras by turning them on and placing them in position. View the coverage area and decide where to drill your holes. If you are using a wired system, make sure the camera cables are long enough to connect your camera to your monitor
- Attach the brackets using the screwdriver. Regardless of whether your camera is on the ground or on a wall, you will need brackets to securely position your camera. Make sure your brackets are tight and stable enough to hold the camera
- Mount the camera on the brackets. Make sure everything is tightly secured
- Select a location for your monitor. The monitor should be where you spend the most time. If you are using a wireless system, you have completed the setup process
- Run a cable from each camera to your monitor if you are using a wired system. Cables can run along door and floor edges or under a carpet. Use electrical tape or a staple gun to secure your wires. If your monitor does not have multiple plugs for your camera cables, you need to purchase a multiplexer. Plug your camera cables into the multiplexer and plug the multiplexer into the monitor
- Turn on your system to view your area
- Please the keeping glass surface clean . Otherwise it may make light sensor an expiration

05-30-2011- Other Thoughts: I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of this camera. There are all kinds of cameras out there but very few that are designed and hardened to outdoor use. It looks very robust. For the price I can find no fault in this camera at all. Time will tell how long it lasts, how durable it is, etc. For right now I'm very happy with it and it gives me a 24 hour view.

04-26-2011- Other Thoughts: Im actually using this system in my small business, first I bought one for a friend who needed a security system and then after he was telling me how good it worked for him I decided to buy one for me and I have to say its one of the best camera security system I've ever seen of course at this price. But the best of the system is its software wich can be easy configure by anyone like me who has no experience installing cameras. I did it by myself the kit come with everything you need. The thing I like the most was that it can record by motion detection wich can save you lot of HD space, and Im still trying to configure the internet option to see on my blackberry but I cant figure out how to do the port fw process its killing me. But overall this system is the best you can get for the price. PD: I bought a led monitor to see it in my office and its better than watching it on the computer :)

04-12-2011- Other Thoughts: This is great and was easy to setup. At the moment I did a quick setup to get it working without running a bunch of wires. I put it inside facing out a window and the night vision does NOT work thru a window. Once mounted outside we'll see if it works. For now it was very easy to setup and use. Just to not turn up the resolution too high with an average monitor or you will lock yourself out. If you do, plug it into a TV to change it back. Lastly, calling their cust service was impressive. No long hold times and very nice people. Not something you find these days.

The U.N. Exposed: How the United Nations Sabotages America's Security and Fails the World
Long before the UN's mammoth Oil for Food scandal, conservatives were both offended by and suspicious of this supranational organization, which seems to oppose and criticize the United States at every opportunity. For most of the press, the UN is a beleaguered force for good in the world, one that deserves even more support from the United States (which already pays for 22 percent of its operating budget). Eric Shawn, a senior correspondent and anchor for Fox News Channel, has aggressively reported on the many transgressions of UN officials for nearly two years.
In The UN Exposed, Shawn uses the Oil for Food scandal as a starting point to expose the organization's inefficiency, corruption, and extreme anti-American agenda. Many Americans are already disturbed by the UN's hypocrisy. He peers behind the closed doors and posits what America should do to make it work better.

Thank you very much *bow* Tayama - I like the samurai best personally, but I would say that the Golem is number 2. Do you do the DSGs?
not bad stuff, but i would suggest studying anatomy and perspective because most of the pictures seem to be off. also, be more conscious of the brushstrokes you are creating, not just where the light and dark areas are
Lost track of time on this one - but I am pretty certain I kept it (at least) under the 1 and 1/2 hour time limit...

Project by David Theller | posted 181 days ago | 746 views | 1 time favorited | 3 comments |
I have been wanting to make a nightstand for myself for awhile and finally found the time this summer. Like most of my projects, this one began a year ago with me cutting lumber on my grandfathers saw mill and dreaming about what i would make. I didn't really have a plan when making this, but i knew I wanted the stand to be large, I was tired of running out of space. The top came out to be 26"x 34", the two drawers are 10" tall x 16" wide x 18" long, and the total height came out to be 31" tall. I finished It with puritan pine stain, and then a coat of polyurethane.

Canada: Tablet ownership tripled in 2011
by Elizabeth Cunningham Perkins (Guest contributor/Digital Journalist)
A Media Technology Monitor report indicated tablet computer use by Canadians almost tripled during 2011 and promises to keep rising through 2012, 680 News reported.
According to 680 News, ownership of tablet computers by English-speaking Canadians had reached about 11 percent by last fall, compared to four percent in 2010, based upon Media Technology Monitor surveys of 4,000 English-speaking and 4,000 French-speaking Canadians.
Among French-speaking Canadians, tablet use reached six percent last fall, up from two percent in 2010, and MTM predicted 17 percent of all Canadians will own tablets by the end of 2012 — mostly Apple iPads if the current trend continues — compared to 10 percent in 2011, but few Canadians watch TV on their tablet computers, or watch TV online at all, 680 News reported.
Tablet ownership has increased in the United States also: A study of several Pew surveys conducted late 2011 through early 2012 found tablet purchases, including e-readers such asNooks and Kindles, surged throughout the United States during the 2011-2012 holiday shopping season, Reuters reported.In the United Kingdom, research by comScore in 2011 suggested higher morning and evening use of tablet computers and smartphones, before and after personal computer use (perhaps over breakfast and before bedtime), was growing steadily into a significant share of the browsing market, The Guardian reported.

look: 3.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
22 ounce bottle, 2012 vintage. Served in a chalice, the beer pours a hazy reddish/coper color with about a half inch off-white head. Head retention and lacing are both decent enough. Aroma is nice, the brew smells like cinnamon, bourbon, vanilla, and some bready malt. Taste is similar to the aroma, with the cinnamon and bourbon flavors being strongest (but neither one is overpowering). Mouthfeel/body is medium, it's a bit creamy with moderate carbonation. It's also smooth and easy to drink. I liked this brew, hopefully Listermann will brew another batch next year. $12.49 a bottle.

3.3/5 rDev -9.8%
look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 3 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3
A: The beer is slightly hazy reddish amber in color and has no visible carbonation. It poured with a quarter finger high light beige head that died down a bit but consistently left a thin head covering the surface.
S: There are light to moderate aromas of cinnamon in the nose, similar in some aspects to spiced apple cider.
T: Like the smell, the taste is similar to the smell but also has notes of bourbon from the barrel aging. The cinnamon lingers through the finish and is especially more prevalent as the beer warms up.
M: It feels medium-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer has a nice Christmas-spiced aroma but the taste of cinnamon and bourbon does not really seem to mix that well.

Oh, Yes: Black Girls Do Run!
Organization takes aim at the stereotype that black women aren't fit
Toni Carey and Ashley Hicks started Black Girls RUN! (BGR), a nonprofit dedicated to promoting a healthy lifestyle among black women, back in 2009. Now, three years later, their members have taken the organization to new heights and they are happy to be along for the ride.
Black Girls RUN! Is currently almost 20,000 members strong on their Facebook page and they're inspiring women to lace up their sneakers and hit the pavement -- together. Not only is there safety in numbers, but there is accountability too.
"I am down 34 pounds," one member boasts. "I got here by changing my eating habits, weight training, and running weekly with my local Black Girls RUN! Group. I have 30 pounds to go and I'm more motivated than ever!"
This sisterhood allows them to get tips on increasing distance, best workout clothes to wear, training regimens and more. Pushing each other to new heights seems to be the unofficial motto and it's working for members.
One member says, "I don't like running, but Black Girls RUN! has given me a new outlook on running, physical fitness, and health."
[ALSO READ: Black Girl Stigmatized]
Toni Carey talked to Loop 21 about the organization, their future plans and whether black women are willing to prioritize health over hair.
Loop 21: You created BGR in 2009. Were you serious runners before you started the organization? Can you tell me a little about your fitness journey before?
Toni Carey: Ashley and I have very different fitness journeys. I was never athletic as a kid and I never thought I would consider myself a runner. My journey started with watching Ashley getting more and more into running. I also worked with a company that sponsored the wheelchair division of the ING New York City Marathon.
After seeing the heart and determination of those athletes and experiencing the atmosphere of the race, I knew I wanted to give it a try. Ashley, on the other hand, has always been an athlete and played soccer in high school and in college. After ending her soccer career she started running to get back in shape. Her cousin, a veteran runner, encouraged her to take up the longer distances.
Loop 21: Why did you decide to start BGR? Was there a particular event that sparked the idea?
Toni Carey: Three years ago, we both were getting more and more involved in running. We realized that there was this stereotype that black women don't run. We thought it was the most absurd thing ever and wanted to dispel that myth. We decided to start a blog called Black Girls RUN! to share our running journey, but also to increase awareness of the obesity epidemic in the African-American community, especially among black women.
Loop 21: What is your major goal with BGR?
Toni Carey: The mission of Black Girls RUN! is to encourage African-American women to make fitness and healthy living a priority.
[ALSO READ: Overweight Black Women Are Confident?]
Loop 21: There has been a lot of talk in the news about black women and their lack of exercise, one of the primary reasons being that they don't want to mess up their hair. BGR seems to stand for the opposite approach -- that regular exercise is a part of looking good as well. Do you think your message is effective? What have your members been saying about the issue?
Toni Carey: Our stance has always been "health over hair." What good is a fabulous hairstyle if you are overweight and/or obese?
While we still get a little resistance, our members typically have gotten to a point in their lives where they are ready to make that sacrifice. They understand that being healthy is a lifestyle and with that you have to change your mindset, not just your actions.
Loop 21: What are your future plans for BGR?
Toni Carey: Our plan is to continue to expand Black Girls RUN! across the nation and internationally, as well as implement more community-based program.

This trade between Minnesota and Atlanta escalated quickly.
You want to know what's bad? I keep referencing that the signings of Ricky Nolasco, Phil Hughes, and Mike Pelfrey will prevent another call-up of P.J. Walters. Well that's great, except I just...

Jesse's not a fan, you guys. Let's see how he rationalizes this, shall we?
The Twins are being aggressive. How will that work out?

Pedro Martinez returns to Red Sox as assistant to GM Ben Cherington
- Thomas Grillo
- Real Estate Editor- Boston Business Journal
- Email | Twitter
Pedro Martinez, a three-time Cy Young Award winner, is returning to the Boston Red Sox as special assistant to general manager Ben Cherington.
"I am thrilled to be returning to this organization and to the city I love," Martinez said in a statement. "It is an honor to be back with the Red Sox and help in any way I can...I thank them for allowing me to return to the field and help us win again. My heart will always live in Boston."
Martinez, 41, spent seven seasons with the Red Sox beginning in 1998 and was a key part of the 2004 team that brought a World Series title to Boston for the first time since 1918. During his 18-year career, the native of the Dominican Republic went 219-100 with a 2.93 ERA and 3,154 strikeouts in 2,827 innings. His career .687 winning percentage ranks second among modern major leaguers behind Whitey Ford's .690 mark. Among pitchers with at least 2,500 career innings in the majors, only Nolan Ryan (.204) has a lower opponent batting average than Martinez at .214.
With the Red Sox, Martinez went 117-37 with a 2.52 ERA. He has the best winning percentage in franchise history and tops club records with an average of 11 strikeouts per nine innings and a .206 opponent batting average. Among Red Sox all-time leaders, he ranks third in strikeouts (1,683), sixth in wins (117), and seventh in ERA.
Martinez finished within the top four in AL Cy Young balloting in each of his six full seasons with the Red Sox, with the exception coming in 2001, when he was limited to 18 starts due to injury. He was the winner of the American League's Cy Young Award in consecutive seasons in 1999 and 2000. Winning the AL pitching Triple Crown in 1999, he fanned a Red Sox record 313 batters in 213.1 innings, and set a league record that still stands with an average of 13.2 strikeouts per nine innings. That year, he also set a big league record striking out at least 10 batters in eight consecutive games.

Mark this one down as a crazy, unsubstantiated rumor. Music Rooms has a "source" close to Indiana Jones 5 and has revealed the following information:
Last we heard is that there was a "germ of an idea" floating around and a possible 2012 release. All of these new rumors seem very easy to…make up. If it really is gearing up for production I'm sure we will hear soon. Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull made almost $800 million worldwide, so it's no surprise we will see another one. Hopefully there's no need for LaBeouf-style apologizing this time.
Spielberg's next features, the drama War Horse and his sci-fi blockbuster The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn, hits theaters August 2011 and a few months later in December, respectively.

Amidst a glut of low-budget horror films, Haunt separates itself with its character-driven approach.

Anaesthetists often use a t-piece for paediatric anaesthesia as they are light-weight, have rapid wash in and wash out times, and give the best feel for lung compliance.
However, they are very polluting because they are open circuits, and wasteful as they require at least 6L/minute of gas flow to prevent rebreathing of CO2.
Swedish anaesthetists are very conscious of the potential risks to staff from exposure to volatile, and they do their utmost to reduce pollution. T-pieces are seldom used for this reason. In fact, they don't exist at the Karolinska University Children's Hospital.
Unfortunately, pollution by volatile agents in anaesthetic rooms and operating theatres in Australia is not really perceived as a problem. The high turnover of cases and the frequent use t-pieces results in significant spillage of volatile in these areas. T-pieces allowing scavenging are often not available, are expensive and many are clumsy to use.
A very simple alternative scavenging system can be made using a 50ml leur lock syringe attached to the regular suction. The leur lock plugs nicely into the end of the suction tubing.
Although not ideal, as this system does not allow easy scavenging when positive pressure ventilation is used, it noticeably reduces volatile pollution during the majority of a spontaneously ventilating case.

I've been searching a long time
For a girl just like you
When I saw you, I could tell then
All my dreams had come true
You came a-cruisin' into my life
I was ready for a change
I knew you were a hot girl
So I asked your name
You said it don't matter
Take me with you tonight
We'll hit the town and we'll party
Make sure I'm home before light
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsty.com/anvil-hot-child-lyrics.html ]
So we went cruisin' together
We had one hell of a time
That lady and I tore up the town
You know she blew my mind
We hit all the night spots
You know the music was intense
Lights reflected in her eyes
In the room the smoke was dense
I took her back to my place
You know she felt just fine
I started coming on to her
In seconds she was mine
Morning sun shone in her hair
You know she sure looked wild
I could really tell then
She was a Hot Child
Make sure, make sure I'm home before light

Clark County Sheriff Danny Rodden on Wednesday took a first step to address the budget gap his office is facing by changing the policy for 40 take-home vehicles used by the department's officers.
The measure was taken to help bridge a budget gap of about $1.2 million in the sheriff's department that must be closed before the end of the year.
The Clark County Council has asked the sheriff to provide a detailed plan of how he will meet the budget appropriated to the department back in March — after the Department of Local Government Finance returned a certified budget order $7 million less than what the county had requested — by Friday. Rodden has repeatedly said he does not know how he will cut that much out of his budget because the only area he can cut is salaries, he has state requirements that the department must meet and he is already short-staffed.
While the sheriff's deputies will still be able to drive the vehicles to their homes under the revised policy, they will not be able to use the cars for any type of personal use.
"We're telling all of our guys they can only drive them for sheriff's office business only," Rodden said.
He added the mileage the officers drive is recorded and tracked while they are on duty and the deputies will be required to call in and report when they end their shifts. Rodden said the officers are still taking the vehicles home because there is no place for all of the cars to be securely parked; if the cars are at the officer's homes they are safer from vandalism; and police vehicles being parked in neighborhoods helps as a crime deterrent.
Capt. Brian Meyer, who acts as an organizer for the sheriff's alliance, said the change will not affect the majority of the officers.
"We want to try and do our part to help the county out of our financial crisis," he said. "So, if it helps, we're willing to do that."
He added that the only drawback he could see because of the policy change would be for the sheriff's department detectives. Meyer explained that the county's detectives are always on call and if they needed to respond to an incident when they were away from home they would have to go home, pick up their county vehicle, then come to the crime scene.
There may be a few exceptions to the policy as Rodden said he will allow for a couple of vehicles to be used for deputies that are working as security at the Southern Indiana Treatment Center and at Ivy Tech Community College.
"I'm going to try it for a while and see how it works," he said.
Rodden said the policy may be revisited and amended to not allow deputies to take their vehicles home. The policy will be in place for at least a month before the department will know how much savings the change will generate and whether or not it will have to be revisited, he said.
The sheriff's department may not be the only county department that changes its policy for take-home vehicles. Clark County Highway Superintendent Jim Ross said discussions have taken place as to whether or not the policy will change for highway department workers. He said workers take the vehicles home because it is faster for them to respond if they are called for an emergency in the middle of the night.
However, Ross said the county highway department workers are not allowed to use their trucks — of which there are five, and one car used by County Engineer Hyun Lee — for personal use.
"We don't use them on a personal basis," he said. "We track the mileage [and] nobody uses their vehicle other than straight home and straight back."

Foreign ownership and effects on employment and wages: The case of Sweden
In this paper we study how foreign ownership of Swedish companies affect employment and wage setting. To study the effects we specify a model that is essentially based on the assumption that the Swedish labour market can be described as a market where trade unions and employers bargain over both wage and employment. Our hypothesis is that the bargaining power is affected by institutional settings and the ownership of the firm. The data we used to test our hypothesis is a panel data set including nearly 200 firms, spanning over the period 1980-1994. The results indicate that foreign ownership has no significant effect on employment, whereas the effect on wages is significantly positive.Download Info
