Anneli Matsson is an organizational sociologist who obtained her PhD in 2022 at the University of Gothenburg. Her dissertation, titled 'Handshake: Organizing Silence – Case Study of Pragmatic Differential Treatment Working Life,' investigates the interactions of ostracism and organizational politics within the work environment. The research emphasizes a gender perspective, highlighting how differential treatment can lead to social exclusion and mental health issues, including an increased risk of suicide. As a senior lecturer, she is involved in multiple research projects, including a FORTE project examining silence strategies for female managers in social services, which runs from 2025 to 2027. Matsson's research interests focus on the dynamics of social policy in the labor market, including exclusion and inequality, and the impact of workplace harassment. With a strong background in occupational health, Matsson employs theoretical frameworks such as ostracism theory and organizational politics to analyze decision-making processes and their implications in the workplace.
