Procházka, Leoš ; Křížek, Petr (advisor) ; Štica, Petr (referee)
The Bachelor thesis "Employment policy from the point of view of the catholic social teaching", deals with the alternatives and means of application of the catholic social teaching in the employment policy. In the first chapter it describes the history of the social teaching of the church, further it analyses the fundamentals and principles, followed by the catholic social teaching in the field of the human labour. Those entire bases are later used as the building blocks for the research into particular employment policies. Second chapter describes in detail the area of remuneration, labour unions, active and passive employment policies and mentions the most important influences and current directions. The thesis illustrates how a Christian, active in politics or economy, can apply the catholic social teaching it practice and shows the difficulties and recourses, which needs to be considered. The hierarchy of conditions and processes shown on the example of the employment policy can be then utilised in any other area of the social policy.
