NON-PARTICIPATION OF GRADUETES OF THE SOCIAL WORK IN THE LABOUR MARKET

Abstract

The problem of non-participation of graduates in the labour market prevails in the field of social work. Non-participation in the labour market is equated with non-employment on the basis of the available education in social work area. Although social work studies are carried out by most higher education institutions, to which not a small number of graduates enter every year, but the need for social workers in the labour market remains. The aim of this study is to analyse the non-participation of social work graduates in the labour market. The study involved 8 social work graduates who graduated from X higher education institutions and did not enter the labour market in accordance with the acquired profession. According research data, non-participation is influenced by changing motivation to work in the studies process, which influences dissatisfaction with professional activities.
