Other factors that have influence on the occupational prestige are analysed, specifically some sociodemographic factors (gender, education, residence size), subjective living standards of households and primarily the historical period (the socialization cohorts) when the person entered the labour market.

I characterize methodology and describe problem they can happen in research. In the third part I chronologically summarize Czech occupational prestige research results, I advert to some changes of occupational assessing and I explain projection of society changes into the prestige scale. In the last part I present my own research results. This research was realised in 2012. I demonstrate research specification.

In the deeper analysis In the last part I try to explain what are the aspect according respondents make their ranking.

The research was targeted to the concept of prestige of particular target groups and form of social work, and to reveal the factors affecting them. The research was conducted qualitatively, using the method of questioning, by the technique of half-structured interview.
