Zakładowe świadczenia socjalne w ocenie pracowników

Abstract

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.
