Flexibility and Flexicurity in EU labour markets
Beránková, Veronika ; Švarcová, Natálie (advisor) ; Flek, Vladislav (referee)
The thesis deals with two predominant concepts in the European labour markets. The first limits itself to provide for enhanced flexibility, while the second one, known as "flexicurity", combines the promotion of labour flexibility with an ambition to retain certain security for workers. Both of the concepts address the need to adjust the labour markets to the "new social reality", where frequent changes call for fast adaptation and flexibility. The thesis treats both of the concepts as separate strategies and analyses their potential, main challenges and problems.

Signing language as a form of alternative and augmentative communication is firstly used for communication of deaf people who are not enough developed by verbal component of speech or for those where there is no verbal komponent of speech at all. In simplified form of sign language it also helps children with Down syndrome to express themselves. For this target group the signing is supporting method which helps to developt the speech which is delayed because of the mental disability. In communication with children with Down syndrome is verbal speech accompanied by signs which help child to understand the meaning and give him the opportunity to express oneself. The aim of the thesis was a comparasion by studying Czech and foreign professional publications by two different views on the use of sign language in communication with children with Down syndrome and this views illustrate by case studies. The thesis includes definition and characteristics of Down syndrome, speech development of children with this diagnosis, characteristics alternative and augmentative communication and its individual systems and also benefits and potential risks of signing. The next section of thesis illustrate the knowledge from previous chapters by case studies. There were selected two women as mothers of children with Down syndrome. They were chosen on the different experience with signing. It was appeared while signing there is necessary to support mother by whole family and to involve the family into the process of signing. Next there appears that knowledge from professional literature can?t be apllied to whole target group, i.e. children with Down syndrome. The thesis also shows how few professional publications apply the potentional risks of signing. The thesis can be used as an information for those parents who decide to communicate with their child by using methods of signing.
