Macounová, Markéta ; Šerák, Michal (advisor) ; Gruber, Jan (referee)
The bachelor thesis will deal with the role conflict of women from the sandwich generation working in the helping professions. The aim is to identify the roles of these women and analyse the types of conflict they may encounter. The focus on women was chosen because of their usual position as primary caregivers in the sandwich generation. The thesis will focus on the sandwich generation, and the factors influencing its emergence. It will also look at the helping professions, social roles and the impact of experiencing role conflict on the work and family of sandwich generation women working in the helping professions. A quantitative empirical investigation will be conducted using a questionnaire. The questionnaire will include work-family and work-family conflict scales. The respondents will be women who care for at least one dependent child, care for at least one aging elderly person and work in the helping professions. The expected number of participants in the empirical survey is 60. The aim of the empirical investigation will be to analyse the conflict between work and family among women from the sandwich generation working in the helping professions.
