Socio-Welfare Benefits Provided by Work Establishment in Employees' Evaluation

The present transition to market mechanisms of economy regulation accounts for an enhanced interest in conditions of microeffective functioning of enterprises. This creates a necessity to curb the traditional non-economic functions hitherto performed by these economic entities. Hence a topical issue is a question regarding advisability, scope and mode of the functioning of the so-called plant socio-welfare system. The article presents the findings of pilot studies, which aimed at determining employees options in this sphere. Due to a complex social role of these benefits there seems justified a view that one of premises behind a gradual departure from traditional tasks of an enterprise should be to gather evaluations of the socio-welfare system from employees themselves. A general conclusion ensuing from these, studies is that a necessity of seeking effectiveness-promoting solutions in the system of enterprise functioning should not be synonymous with abandoning automatically their socio-welfare functions.Digitalizacja i udostępnienie w Cyfrowym Repozytorium Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego kolekcji czasopism naukowych wydawanych przez Uniwersytet Łódzki nr 885/P-DUN/2014 zostało dofinansowane ze środków MNiSW w ramach działalności upowszechniającej naukę
