Martínek, Michal ; Kašparová, Eva (advisor) ; Ticháková, Zuzana (referee)
This work consists of use of modern communication and social networks during the working hours of Czech employees. I mainly focus on networks such as Facebook, LinkedIn and those of competitive corporations such as Microsoft and Google. Having been introduced to the functionality of these networks, I took a further look into their practical use of employees. Within the frame of my scientific research I have come up with three hypotheses which were consequently compared with the results of my questionnaire which had been previously filled in by carefully chosen employees. The aim of these hypotheses was to find out which networks and for what purposes they were used by the employees in their working time. The last hypothesis was focused on the opinion of respondents on increase of efficiency of their work through these networks. The result of this research is that the employees use various networks for working and personal purposes in working time while they mainly use them for personal purposes. Majority of respondents is convinced that the communication networks would increase their working efficiency.

The Reconciliation of Work and Personal Live
Ticháková, Zuzana ; Pauknerová, Daniela (advisor) ; Bedrnová, Eva (referee)
This thesis focuses on the reconciliation of work and family responsibilities of women. The aim is to find out how women manage to balance work and family, how much time per week they dedicate to housework and family care and how is their partner involved in the responsibilities. Interviews and questionnaires are used for these purposes. The idea of gender roles is reflected not only in the work area, but also in the personal one. The man expects that the woman will take care of household and children. It is appropriate for the partners to have an equal part of the responsibilities that arise from living together and starting a family. It is also necessary to solve who of the partners stays on parental leave. It always depends on the individual case and the mutual agreement of the partners.

Perception of Ideal Beauty
Ticháková, Zuzana ; Zamazalová, Marcela (advisor) ; Skokanová, Dagmar (referee)
Media broadcast every day a huge number of signals and messages that affect us, without we are aware of them. In most cases it is about a distorted reality, which seems like real reality. This, from my point of view, affect the self-confidence of current women - with a different hair colour, skin colour, with different proportions. When they are facing perfection that the media present, they feel mean and unhappy with their bodies. By analyzing data from a marketing database and created questionnaire I will try to confirm this hypothesis. In conclusion then I will propose procedures that could reduce these negative impacts or at least reduce them. It is necessary to extend the idea of real beauty and displace untouchable perfection, on which responds still younger girls. Looking back to past, we discover that before Twiggy had become famous, was respected the exact opposite of female beauty. She was the one, who started an endless hunt for the extreme slimness, which brought problems with eating disorders.
