Analysis of Financing Social Services Provided Free of Charge by Non-Governmental Organization in the South Bohemian Region
FIALOVÁ, Nina
Not only the state plays a part in the social field through its institutions or established organizations, but also non-governmental organizations, which are significant actors in the field of social services. The main mission of non-governmental organizations in the social field is to provide services in the context of Act No. 108/2006 Coll. on Social Services. Provided social services are divided into social consultancy, social care services, and social prevention services. The kinds of services provided free of charge which can be found in the law are, for example, social consultancy, early intervention, emergency assistance, follow-up care, social activation services for families with children, seniors, people with disabilities and outreach programmes. Most non-governmental organizations in the Czech Republic providing social services finance their operations from multiple sources, such as grant procedures of ministries, regions, municipalities, the EU, endowment entities and also from incomes from their own activities. This diploma thesis aimed to ascertain in what ways and from what sources non-governmental organizations in the South Bohemian Region fund social services which are provided to clients free of charge by law. At the same time, it was also important to identify the possibilities of financing social services provided free of charge by the South Bohemian Region. A qualitative research strategy was used for the research, along with the method of questioning and furthermore, the analysis of relevant documents was carried out. The research part provides a detailed view of social services and their significance within the South Bohemian Region and gives an insight into the matters of financing non-governmental organizations providing social services free of charge in the territory of the South Bohemian Region.

The Social Aspect of the Success of People over 50 on the Labour Market in the district of Písek
FIALOVÁ, Nina
The bachelor thesis "Social aspects of employment of people over 50 years in the labour market in the district of Písek" deals with the position of people 50+ in the labour market and especially with their perception of themselves. The purpose of this thesis is to find out if these people feel more disadvantaged than people who have not reached the age of 50. At the same time, the quantitative research strategy identifies the differences between the two age categories. I examined the whole issue mainly on the basis of a questionnaire survey, as a complementary part, there a qualitative research strategy in the form of semi-structured interviews with employees of the Labour Office was chosen. The research showed that the majority of participants 50+ in the questionnaire survey consider the age, health limitations, lack of education and preference of younger jobseekerss as the biggest disadvantage in their age category. At the same time, research has shown that people over 50 are more skeptical and generally have greater distrust of themselves than younger jobseekers. Interviews with Labour Office employees confirmed that they also see more employers' interest in younger jobseekers and, at the same time, the diminishing self-confidence of people over 50 years of age, which declines with each passing day in the job seekers register. I am convinced that the research and whole thesis will more clearly describe the issue of employing people over the age of 50. The researched facts can be pivotal in solving problems related to unemployment at a later age and can also serve as new information for students of social studies. The bachelor thesis can also serve as one of the stimuli leading to reflection on the issue of aging of the Czech population, which is reflected in many social aspects and in the future it will be increasingly reflected not only on the labour market but also in other areas of our society.
