Abstract:
In the society, due to many changes in demographic population development, it should be paid more attention to the adequate setting of the social security system to avoid the social risks. One of the pillars of social security system in the Czech Republic is social care, which also includes social services. After 1989 the setting of social services was not effective, did not respond asked needs and there was no space for development. The Act No. 108/2006 Coll., on social services, which the social services are currently defined, is a prerequisite for the current organization of social services

Employer of choice has become part of mainstream business terminology. The portfolio demonstrates an internal education resource on a company's employer of choice initiatives, benefits and opportunities constructively enriches an Australian business' corporate social responsibility culture, enhances opportunities for staff, and maximises industry advantage

Abstract:
Virtual environments offer an exciting platform for social science research. The persistent nature of online virtual worlds such as Second Life however has increased the potential for both companies and institutions looking to establish a virtual presence and researchers looking to measure the evolving forms of human behaviour displayed when interacting within them. Since the use of the Internet has become widespread, commercial enterprises are particularly interested in exploring the opportunities that virtual environments may hold for them as the stereotype of what constitutes a ‘typical’ co

In this study, we have examined if and how parents who receive financial support from the social services experience that their children are being affected by financial stress, as well as whether the parents experience that they are given satisfactory support from the social services. Empowerment and Sense of coherence were used as a theoretical framework to analyze the results. Interviews with three informants who all were receiving financial support at the time, and have at least one child below the age of 18 in their custody were performed.

ABSTRACT: Financing is a critical factor in ensuring the optimal development and delivery of a mental health system. The primary method of financing worldwide is tax-based. However many low income countries depend on out-of-pocket payments. There is a report on Irish Health Care funding but none that deals exclusively with mental health care. This paper analyses the various financial models that exist globally with respect to financing the mental health sector, examines the impact of various models on service users, especially in terms of relative ‘financial burden’ and provides a more deta

This study has been conducted with Sirius International as a case company. The investigation has revolved around the weaknesses Sirius, along with the authors, have identified concerning the international collaboration and communication. It was later shown that these problems were based on a low sense of unity in the organization as a result of the lack of knowledge sharing, knowledge management, and spread of organization related information. It was decided to evaluate whether a corporate social network (CSN) could assist in these problems and if so, decide what system would be the most appro
