Porovnání vývoje platů pedagogických pracovníků k růstu průměrné mzdy v letech 2012–2019 v České republice podle jednotlivých krajů

The bachelor thesis examines the salary evaluation of pedagogical staff at primary and secondary schools in the public sector during the years 2012–2019. Teachers' salaries are compared to salaries in individual regions of the Czech Republic. The theoretical part of the thesis first defines the terms related to the public sector and the method for determining the salary of teachers, as well as the concepts and theories of unemployment, gross domestic product and human capital. In the practical part, the work compares the salaries of teachers in primary and secondary schools to the average wages in individual regions using data obtained mainly from the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports and the Czech Statistical Office. An analysis is then performed in the selected regions, dealing with finding possible causes of disparities among picked areas. The thesis finds the resulting differences between salaries and wages. The lowest ratios of salaries to wages in the entire monitored period are possible to detect in the capital city of Prague. By contrast, the highest conditions are in the Karlovy Vary region. An analysis examining the possible causes of inequality is performed in six selected regions. The development of unemployment, gross domestic product and the share of university-educated people registered in the region corresponds to the identified disparities. The work offers a view of the financial situation of pedagogical staff and an overview of the situation in individual regions.
