The impact of motherhood on retirement benefits
Šatava, Jiří
In our analysis, we have attempted to quantify the negative impact of motherhood and parenthood on women’s retirement benefit amount, which is linked to the impact of motherhood on the mothers’ wages and employment. We have calculated that motherhood and parenthood reduces women’s retirement benefits by an average of several hundred Czech crowns per month. This is caused both by lower employment and lower earnings due to parenthood. However, the average reduction in women’s retirement benefits due to parenthood never exceeds 8 percent, even if the impact of parenthood on women’s career were twice that shown in the data.

Alternative and new ways of costume design
Rybáková, Simona ; MATÁSEK, Petr (advisor) ; PTÁČKOVÁ, Věra (referee)
This work is aiming to show costume designing as an essential artistic field of today which surpasses limits of applied arts or mere decoration in an effort of emancipation.It talks about the specific characteristics of this field and how it surpasses into other domains and it opens chapters which I deemed significant to my topic. The text outlines my professional career as costume designer to my pedagogic and finally to my organisational curator?s experience. I describe how I enrich the basic practical and empirical education with an emphasis on the artistic way of expression with more theoretical and analytical abilities. The latter is documented mainly with the exhibition ?Extreme costume? in PQ 2011.An important part is the vocabulary of some rather technical terms; it is very liquid and constantly changing. Predominant tendency is to find terms commonly revealing to help the lay audience understand a discipline which can be attractive when a suitable form and presentation is used. Besides the language it is also new topics reflecting costume and its development such as; costume as performance, nudity as/and costume, event and an act of wearing a dress, installation and costume, light and costume, technology and costume which complete the perspective. The number of themes which emerged in the last 6 years is high and sometimes they are connected only seemingly. Some are entering disciplines which are interconnected and influence each other mutually. Therefore some examples of work process are used repeatedly in a comparative or illustrative role.Throughout the whole work the search is for new paths, techniques and materials for costume design and its emancipation. Next to this stands no less important role of costume as a part of action scenography as well as the postmodernism of 1980?s which is a significant starting point of my own work. In contrast to certain excessiveness stands the concept of unpretentious costume completed with specifics of film costume designing.Fashion show as a show with all the aspects of a dramatic piece/performance considers consumer and sociological topics and can be linked to reshaping and costume recycling which closely relates to economic and ecologic aspects too.Emancipation effort is joined with its presentation in public in the form of exhibitions, events, workshops and its documentation for the future. The technological ?boom? occurred especially with the emerge of light costume and ?wearables? as well as the research for materials and the work of realizers on creative ideas of the artists. An inseparable part is a dictionary of alternative materials used in costume designing and a extensive bibliography.

Legal regulation of the association of unit owners and its practical issues
Sýkora, Jakub ; Salač, Josef (advisor) ; Dvořák, Jan (referee)
59 Cizojazyčné resumé The legal regulations of the unit owners' association and its issues in practice The questions in regards to the flat ownership and unit owners' association are very topical nowadays, mainly with respect to the fact that this subject affects the daily life of many addressees of law regulations. The poor elaboration of the legal regulations of the unit owners' association led to a negative response from the public. This legal regulation is rather complicated and inconsistent. The legislator made the attempt to resolve the imperfections in the legal regulations through several amendments of the flat ownership law; however, these amendments did not abrogate all the moot questions and many times brought other confusions into the legal regulations. I discuss the most important amendments mentioned above at the beginning of my thesis. The main body of the thesis focuses on the unit owners' association, whereby the law recognises this as a legal entity, which is according to the residential and non-residential ownership law eligible to practise law and commit to subjects related to administration, house operating, and repairs of the collective parts of the house only, eventually is eligible practice activities within the scope of the law and activities related to the collective parts of the...

Procurement of Transportation Services in Anheuser-Busch InBev
Ivashkevich, Alexandra ; Vinš, Marek (advisor) ; Kolář, Petr (referee)
Nowadays, companies involved in the international trade and production of goods in order to retain customers and increase market share are forced to assure excellence in the performance at all stages of their supply chains. Transportation plays critical role and can be argued to be the most crucial link in the supply chain determining its success or failure. However, regardless of such high importance, this process is very often outsourced as companies do not possess sufficient expertise and resources to deploy this function in-house. Thus, companies have to develop effective strategies and plan their procurement activities accordingly and then manage the outcome. There is not a lot of studies that would take a narrow look at the development of procurement strategy for transportation services in particular. This work is aimed to get the insight and discuss strategic, planning level and post operational evaluation of the procurement of transportation services and explore practical implication on the example of AB InBev through in-depth interviews with company employees. As an outcome this work is aimed to provide an outline of the company performance, value added or negative aspects as a result of application of previously discussed strategies.
