Labour relations and sociometry like a way of measurment
Knížová, Kristýna ; Kuchař, Pavel (advisor) ; Buchtík, Martin (referee)
A sociometric test measures preferential choices of members within a group. Researcher gets the choices through questionnaires in which the members make choices according to several criterions. Then he identificates the preferences and informal structure of the group. Working group is relevant for this methody thanks its basic characterics as common workplace, goals, everyday interactions etc. Nice relationships are important for employees too, there are not considered only good salary and job security. In my research I examined three different working groups and I used the sociometric test. I present results in teams seperately because every of them is unique. At the end of research I summarize the main findings. In discussion I deal with the sociometric test in the methodological way. I write here about pros and cons which I had noticed. Finally I claim that the sociometric test is a suitable method for measuring sociopreferential choices of members and the informal structure of group.

Ageism: Age and the transformation of the labor market. The issue of chances for people over 50 on the labor market in Sokolov.
Rocskárová, Martina ; Buriánek, Jiří (advisor) ; Kuchař, Pavel (referee)
The market transformation, which changed after the revolution in 1989 the centrally planned economy to market economy principles, has brought more opportunities for personal initiative, but some groups built into the marginalized position. These include people over 50, who built their careers on the background of other social conditions. Ingrained habits and passive attitude, together with the indifference of employers have segregated older people in the labor market. The aim of my work is to describe the market transformation according to available sources, with all its implications for change in the concept of career and how these changes disadvantage older generation. In the empirical part I use data from the Labor Office, which reveal the problem of passive and even resigned attitudes of older people. The cause of this state can be among others also the discriminatory behavior of employers and imperfect institutional help.
