Ethics of Social Work from the Students´ and Helping Professions Workers´ Point of View
SEDLÁČKOVÁ, Marie
This study deals with ethics od social work. In the theoretical part, introduction to the issue is outlined and concepts which are often discussed in relation with ethics in social work such as the values and dilemmas of social work are also analyzed here. These findings are compared from printed and electronic resources of Czech and foreign authors who pursue this topic. The aim of this study was to ascertain if students of social work and workers in helping professions consider ethic as important and how these opinions are affected by the practice of social workers. The results of qualitative research were processed by coding. Most of the work is empirical, individual areas of ethics in social work are examined in interviews with thirteen informants in this part. Processed results show to which characteristics and skills the questined informants attribute more importance, which areas they consider to be dilemmatic and which methods help them in solving these dilemmas. Results also shows opinions of the interviewed respondents on the Social Worker's Code of Ethics of the Czech Republic, on ethically important areas, and especially on the teaching of ethics in social work which nowadays is not properly emphasized. After my research I believe that teaching of ethics should be a part of professional training because it is an integral part of the daily practice of social workers. Content of lectures such as ethical standards or codes is as important as are the ways in which these problems are introduced to students.
