Social protection as a sub-sector of critical infrastructure in the Czech Republic and within selected EU member states
MACHÁČKOVÁ, Markéta
The thesis deals with the mapping of social protection as an element of critical infrastructure in selected EU countries (Czech Republic, Ireland, Sweden) and how the information obtained can be used to improve the area of social protection for the purposes of critical infrastructure in the Czech Republic. The thesis takes a comprehensive approach and introduces the issues under the examination via the first three subchapters of the theoretical part of the thesis, where it provides insight into social protection and critical infrastructure at both the EU and national level. Within the research, desk research was applied, the specifics of social protection regulation as part of critical infrastructure of all selected countries were evaluated and a SWOT analysis was performed for the Czech Republic. Recommendations arising from the work include the differentiation of infrastructure into multiple levels according to its importance, following the Irish model, which would prevent easy identification of critical infrastructure elements and would increase their security in the future. The second recommendation is to implement measures to increase the preparedness of the social protection authority for future crises. The initial direction of the responsibility outside of the standard structure of social protection institutions caused that (compared to other countries compared) the Czech Republic did not react to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the field of social protection in a sufficiently flexible manner. An interesting finding then is the similar focus of protection of social protection infrastructure in Ireland and the Czech Republic, which includes the systems that ensure the payment of social protection benefits. Regarding the regulation of the classification of social protection in the critical infrastructure sector in the Member States compared, the Czech Republic's regulation under Government Regulation No 432/2010 Coll. makes sense. Social protection is classified under the public administration sector and largely follows the general division of the social protection system.

PÚČKOVÁ, Kamila
This State Support for People with Disabilities, pursuant to Act No. 329/2011 Coll. diploma thesis is focused on the research of state financial support in a selected sample of respondents. In the theoretical part, I have described the current situation in the area of support for people with disabilities. The practical part is divided into a description of the objective of the work, methodology, analysis and interpretation of data and discussion. The aim of the thesis was to find out the answer to this question: How do people with disabilities perceive receiving benefits intended for their support according to Act No. 329/2011 Coll., and in particular, how do they perceive the impact of the amendment to the Act valid from January 1st, 2018? Three partial research questions have also been used to find the answer. To fulfil the abovementioned aim of this work, a qualitative research strategy, a method of semi-structured interview with selected respondents has been deployed. The technique used for collecting information was an individual in-depth interview. I have analysed and interpreted the data and have received specific information on how beneficiaries subjectively evaluate their provision. I have also verified whether the state support fulfils its function, and if so, to what extent. In conclusion, I have summarized the main findings of the research. As a result, the set-up system was found to be essentially effective. However, for better targeting it and more efficient system functioning, certain parametric changes are be needed in case of some of the benefits, especially the mobility allowance. The respondents expressed the greatest satisfaction with the advantages associated with their disability card.
