Attitudes to work and organization as a part of a competency model Postoje k práci a organizaci jako součást modelu kompetence

When modelling an employee competency, several facets of this theoretical construct could be identified. One of them is grounded in the employee’s attitudes to work and organization, namely in her/his job involvement, organizational commitment, responsibility etc. The paper deals with results of a survey comparing work and organizational attitudes of four groups of subjects. The groups differed in age (20–30 and 50–60) and gender. The survey was a part of a wider research effort aimed at building up a new method of work attitudes measurement. The previous research has shown a rather specific response pattern in the Czech respondents. The survey dealt with presently tries to find more details as goes about the patterns mentioned and to help in constructing a final version of the method. The authors expect that the method will prove to be useful both in theory development and in the field.
