Virtová, Olga ; Krebs, Vojtěch (advisor) ; Kotýnková, Magdalena (referee)
Czech Republic, like other European developed countries, has to deal with impacts of population ageing. The number of older people in society grows therefore the drain on workers in productive age is rising. Population ageing causes problems within current setting of the Czech pension system, especially in long-term sustainability of public finance. Hence added involvement of elderly people into working process becomes necessary. The goal of this Masters thesis is to analyse the situation of older workers on Czech labour market between 2005 and 2015 and to find some possible solutions that would increase the employment rate of people before and in retirement age. There are four chapters in the theoretical part that are dealing with population ageing, labour market, specificities of employing older workers and tools used to increase the employment rate. The practical part is focused on demographic situation in the Czech Republic and especially on analysis of the situation of older workers on the Czech labour market in comparison to countries of the European Union. Analysis that was carried out confirms that the overall employment rate of older workers in the Czech Republic is on a good level however there are some areas that need to be improved. For example, option of using part time working contracts is underused as well as the motivation of elderly people to stay economically active. In the last chapter there are possible solutions suggested. These recommendations could strengthen motivation of older workers to stay on labour market and in the same time should motivate employers to employ these workers.

Virtová, Olga ; Prachař, Ondřej (advisor) ; Procházka, Pavel (referee)
This bachelor's thesis is about analysis of the main features of Czech and British welfare state and its macroeconomic comparison whilst the main topic is the development and structure of public social expenditures. The observation shows that with time there is a constant growth of the level of social expenditures in both countries. Because of financial sustainability of social security system are states forced to be stricter in conditions for receiving social benefits. The main problem of the Czech Republic is a constant increase of expenditures on old-age pension which is nowadays the biggest item of public social expenditures. Another area where the Czech Republic has higher expenditures compared to Great Britain is the area of unemployment compensation. The Czech Republic can partly inspire in British structure of public social expenditures. The Czech Republic could increase expenditures on active labor market programs which should decrease expenditures on unemployment compensation.
