The Quantification of Biomechanical Consequences of Monotonous Sedentary Work to the Axial System
Janáčková, Nina ; Šorfová, Monika (advisor) ; Jelen, Karel (referee)
Thesis Title: The Quantification of Biomechanical Consequences of Monotonous Sedentary Work to the Axial System Thesis Goals: The goal of the Diploma Thesis is to assess the impact of sedentary work position on the axial system and to find out what changes in biomechanical properties occur specifically in the spine after the specific monotonous eight hours lasting load. Method: Five probands were exposed to diagnostic vibrations of the TVS method (transfer vibration through the spine) before performing eight hours monotonous sedentary work and after it. The examined feature was the ability of the axial system to dampen vibrations spread throughout the spine. Dampening reactions of individual segments were compared to each other before and after the performance of work. Results: The TVS method applied at work has proven its adequacy in the provision of information on resonance frequencies and on the overall attenuation of the spine with sufficient accuracy so that the impact to the axial system after completing the work performance was clearly identifiable. When comparing the frequency dependence and overall attenuation of individual probands we have found that the overall attenuation of the spine increased in all examined individuals. Key words: work, axial system, spine, vibrations and TVS.

Work-life balance
Sabolová, Katarína ; Höschlová, Eva (advisor) ; Rymeš, Milan (referee)
Thesis focuses the topic of work-life balance in the context of psychology connecting the knowledge and practices of the applied field of work and organizational psychology. The theoretical part is devoted to defining work-life balance while considering the variability of psychological aspects considering the topic. It also characterizes selected areas of work-life balance, summarizes individual personality, developmental and social determinants that were in relation to the work-life balance research proved. Subsequently, attention is moved to the particular tools and strategies which can be useful in achieving or sustaining work-life balance, considering two basic levels. On the one hand, considering individual personal level in achieving balance of individual and on the other hand, the strategies and tools provided by organization leading to the work-life balance. The second part presents a proposal for a research project that aims is to track the relationship between the amount of time devoted to selected areas in the life of an individual, quality of spending time in terms of overall satisfaction and perceived fullness and desire or openness to change in individual's life in selected areas in the perceived work-life balance. Keywords: work-life balance, work, life, individual approach, organization

Social security vs. Personal liberties. So called normalization and transformation period from Krompachy citizens'perspective. Biographic Narrations
Merjavá, Jana ; Schindler-Wisten, Petra (advisor) ; Houda, Přemysl (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to affect opinions and attitudes of residents of a small town in the east Slovakia to the society during the period of normalization and transformation. These aims are achieved by exploiting the method of oral history and using mainly data obtained in biographical interviews with eight locals as a primary source of information. Their statements are thoroughly analysed and interpreted in two counterparts. Regarding the normalization period, social security was the main subject for analysis, namely the phenomenon of labour, housing, and social services for families with children, while in respect of the period of transformation, personal freedom of expression, movement, and religion has been analysed. Finally, all the obtained conclusions are compared with the available scientific literature in the given field. This thesis aims to affect mainly how the mentioned phenomena were perceived by the individual narrators and how this perception has changed after the year 1989. As part of the conclusion and using all the findings this work provides a comparison of the studied periods; however, an imaginary battle between social security and individual freedoms remains undecided. Moreover, beside the actual analysis the thesis contains a methodological section as well as a section...

So far so good
Rariga, Branislav ; Mazanec,, Martin (referee) ; Šrámek, Jan (advisor)
A dystopic game inspired by a children’s monopoly game, with its content, rules, visuals, etc. metaphorically simulating, ironising or criticizing, and at the same time pointing to the issue of capitalist society, whether in the personal or work / corporate life of an individual, and its impact on society and its development.

Protection of a child's work
Bajneková, Lucia ; Koldinská, Kristina (advisor) ; Hůrka, Petr (referee)
Despite humanity's considerable efforts to stop it child labour remains a global problem. In the international context child labour means the labour of persons younger than 15 years. Despite all the activities of the International Labour Organization (ILO), UN, European Community, UNICEF and other international and national institutions child labour was not completely swept away. Efforts to abolish child labour date back to 1919 when the first meeting of the International Labour Conference was held where, similarly to the following two meetings, convention concerning minimum age for admission to employment were adopted. Its content has been gradually revised and it has eventually been replaced by Convention No. 138 which was included among the ILO's eight priority conventions. Nevertheless it is not possible to argue that child labour is the problem exclusive to the "third world" countries. Although the Labour Code prohibits labour of children under 15 years of age, we can encounter children performing in theatres, films, commercials, modelling, earning extra money at gas stations or distributing leaflets on a daily basis in Czech Republic. These are all activities on which children spend many hours, they do a lot of work and they often earn a considerable amount of money. In many cases we can see...

Cloud computing and its introduction in small and medium sized enterprises
Šimonfy, Adam
Simonfy, A. Cloud computing and its introduction in small and medium enterpris-es. Bachelor thesis. Brno: Mendel University in Brno, 2015. This thesis is compiled on the Cloud computing and its introduction in the small and medium enterprises and evaluation of its connection to the up-coming tech-nologies and chosen factors connected to the operations management with the stress on costs. Cloud computing shows strong benefits for the business. The study of selected model company showed that it is justified for a company to con-sider the technology, however, it might not be applicable for all kinds of small and medium enterprises.
