Analýza pracovní situace romských pracovníků ve vybraném podnikovém prostředí

This diploma thesis deals with discrimination against Roma in the labor market in the Czech Republic. The aim of the thesis is to describe the work situation of Roma workers in a selected corporate environment (cleaning services) and to find out what means can be used to minimize ethnic discrimination in the admission process. The partial goal of this work is to find out what information about the job seeker in cleaning services is crucial for the decision of the employer / client whether to accept such a job seeker. The work situation of Roma workers is analyzed in the theoretical part of the work, which deals with the types and models of discrimination in the labor market, and finally discrimination against Roma in the labor market in the Czech Republic. The analysis of this situation is then supported in the practical part of the work, where three in-depth interviews are conducted with Roma workers who work in a company that mediates cleaning services. It is clear from these interviews that discrimination against Roma in the workplace is still relevant. The interviews provide not only specific stories of individual respondents, but also insight into how they think about discrimination. The respondents do not accumulate anger or anger towards the unjust system, they have learned to live with it. They believe that if they express themselves enough and share as much information about themselves as possible, the fear of the unknown and prejudices from other people will eventually subside. The second half of the practical part of the work is aquantitative research, the results of which help to understand what is important for employers in selecting a job candidate for cleaning services and find out how discrimination against Roma job seekers in the recruitment process can be minimized. The project was implemented by a questionnaire survey with the participation of 91 respondents, who are clients of a cleaning company. The results of quantitative and qualitative research correspond. Both of them show that it is especially important for potential employers or clients to get to know the applicant, to know about his family background, the financial situation of the family or to see a clean criminal record. All this information helps employers to overcome the long-standing image of the Roma in today's majority society. Further results of these researches and the author's recommendations are summarized in the conclusion of this work.
