The diploma thesis "Analysis of the current system solutions for domestic violence in the Czech Republic, focusing on the care of children as witnesses" investigates the system of dealing with cases of domestic violence where children are witnesses of such violence.

Individual actors who may have influence on the issue, their relations, cooperation possibilities and their potential in shaping the policy were also examined and evaluated. At last but not least, the thesis investigates communication channels that are available to the involved actors and their effectiveness. The presented thesis is mainly based on studies of available and relevant sources, on information from interviews with personnel of the social and legal children protection institutions and on answers provided by staff of the social and legal children protection organs in the survey.

Involvement of employers in the provision of care for preschool children in the Czech Republic
Rumanová, Jana ; Dobiášová, Karolína (advisor) ; Kotrusová, Miriam (referee)
My thesis deals with the involvement of employers in the provision of child care services in the Czech republic, their legislative options, motivations, and challenges associated with providing these services. In addition to the so-called. "firm" kindergartens governed by the School Low, recently there was established new child care in children's groups. I try to describe and explain the process of creating this new legislation using optics of Multiple Streams Theory. The conducted expert interviews and interviews with representatives of employers helped me with the identification of external motivations and influences mainly from the state and the surrounding environment and internal factors directly related to the organization. Problem areas mainly concern the establishment of the service and its sustainability. At the conclusion of the thesis, there are formulated recommendations that could help a greater involvement of employers in the provision of childcare services.

Strategy for Reconciling Work and Caring Mothers with Children under Three Years
Abrahámová, Iveta ; Dobiášová, Karolína (advisor) ; Zrcková, Alžběta (referee)
Práce se zabývá strategií, ve které se české ženy snaží o harmonizaci pracovního a rodinného života. Explicitně se zaměřuje na matky s dětmi do tří let z úplných rodin s dvojím příjmem. Ty díky své snaze vypomoct otci s finančním zabezpečením rodiny či snaze po seberealizaci v zaměstnání, na sebe váží povinnost nejen zvládat placenou práci, ale i práci neplacenou, jelikož české rodiny stále představují tradiční dělbu práce v domácnosti. Což zároveň souvisí s postojem české společnosti, který zastává názoru, že pro správný vývoj dítěte je nutná péče matky do tří let dítěte. Tato idea je podporována jednou z nejdelších rodičovských dovolených. Tudíž ani kombinace práce a péče o děti do tří let není institucionálně podporována, dokazuje to nedostatek služeb péče o děti do tří let či nízké poskytování zkrácených pracovních úvazků či jiných flexibilních forem zaměstnání. To přináší do života žen, které se snaží sladit práci s péčí o dítě do tří let, řadu bariér. Cílem práce tak tedy je identifikovat problémy, se kterými se tyto ženy setkávají, jaké strategie volí pro slazení práce a péče, jaká je role mužů v rodinách, kde matka s malým dítětem pracuje, a zmapování sociální politiky podporující pracující matky s dětmi do tří let.

Sandwich generation: women between work and caregiving
Halmlová, Martina ; Dobiášová, Karolína (advisor) ; Kotrusová, Miriam (referee)
The paper deals with the phenomenon of sandwich generation. Specifically, it focuses on women, since they themselves often take on a commitment of care and therefore are more likely to become members of the sandwich generation, i.e. people who take care of still non- autonomous generation of offspring, and simultaneously of generation of aging parents. They are also trying to be autonomous entities and therefore have to combine family care with work responsibilities. The aim of this paper is to get to know the problems of these women, how they manage to cope with these commitments and what are their problems. This paper also deals with social policy in relation to the sandwich generation. The aim is to map the existing policy measures that affect these women and to find out what measures or services would be appropriate to establish in the future.
