Psychosocial load at work of nurses and social workers
KUŘÁTKOVÁ, Lucie
The Thesis deals with the questions of psychosocial load at work for nurses and social workers. The Thesis is divided into two sections. The theoretical part deals with definitions of terms like caring professions, load and stress, then load at work and psychosocial load. There is also a brief characteristic of the professions of a nurse and a social worker. The aim of the empiric part was to find out on a selected sample of respondents (i.e. nurses and social workers) how the respondents perceive the character of their psychosocial load at work and whether they are at risk of burnout syndrome, to find out whether nurses or social workers perceive the psychosocial load more intensely and whether there is a difference in the risk of burnout syndrome between them. A quantitative questioning method and questionnaire technique were applied on data collection and processing in the research part of the Thesis. An anonymous questionnaire was used for the investigation. The questionnaire preparation was based on a questionnaire provided by my thesis guide. The original questionnaire was more extensive and was only designed for nurses, which was why I had to select suitable items and add some special items applicable on nurses as well as social workers. The questionnaire consisted mainly of closed questions where the respondents chose from five answers the one best corresponding with their own opinion. I set 3 hypotheses before starting the research itself. The questionnaire answers were processed both, manually by means of the stroke method and by a statistic programme SPSS. Segment and bar graphs in Microsoft Office Excel were used for graphical interpretation of the results. After evaluation of the questionnaire research results I found out that the previously set hypothesis H1 suggesting that nurses and social workers perceive various elements of their psychosocial load differently, was confirmed, hypothesis H2 suggesting that nurses are more loaded by the work with patients/clients than social workers was not confirmed, and hypothesis H3 suggesting that nurses are at higher risk of burnout syndrome than social workers was confirmed. The results of my thesis may serve to inform general public as well as professionals on the problems in question. They may also serve as a possible incentive for managerial staff to pay higher attention to the problems of psychosocial load at work among caring professions at individual medical care facilities. The results may also serve as a base for further studies and research in the field.

Religious believe as a motivation of a health and social care professional
TALICHOVÁ, Jana
A topic of my bachelor thesis is "Christian faith as a motivation for a social work". The social work as an independent discipline detached only in the 19th century. Though, it is possible to say that an interest in the welfare of the others and an effort to help them in emergency situations were provided for many centuries before its emergence, and primarily by Christian communities. An aim of this thesis is to identify personal attitudes of social workers to the faith and religion and then to determine their incentives to pursue the profession of the social work. The theoretical part has been focused on a history of Christianity in the world and in this country and it emphasizes the situation in its development, which contributed to a solution of social problems. Further the thesis deals with a topic of a Christian love in its widest dimension and with an emergence of a charity. It does not forget, however, neither the social work, its objectives, social workers and their code of ethics. I chose a quantitative research for an implementation of the practical part. The exploratory part of the thesis uses a questionnaire survey as a technique for the data gathering and a secondary data analysis to compare the results. The research sample consisted of social workers practicing their profession in the town of České Budějovice. The control sample was composed of people from the general population working in the same town. Two working hypotheses were created for the research. The first hypothesis was not confirmed: There are more religious people among workers in the social sphere than in the general population. The second hypothesis was not also confirmed: For the religiously-based workers in the social area the religious faith belongs among essential elements of the motivation to pursue their profession. The research shows that there are not more religious people among workers in the social sphere than in the general population. The motivation elements of religiously-based social workers are in the highest percentage representation. "A need to help", "A joy of working with people" and "A meaningful work". The faith as a motivation factor appears only at two respondents out of 41 believers. I believe that the aim of the thesis by carrying out this research has been met. The bachelor thesis can be used to teach students in fields relating to the social work, for an understanding of the religious dimension when working with people and in a personal life.
