Not joining, not legitimizing: non-participation of social service providers in the Czech state register of social enterprises
Original language description
This article deals with social services and social entrepreneurship. In the Czech Republic, the range of service providers is very diverse and includes state non-profit organizations, civil society organisations (CSOs), businesses, and individuals. In January 2025, a new Act on Integrative Social Enterprises (ISE) came into force, aiming to motivate CSOs to generate their own income through entrepreneurial activities, thereby improving the quality of services and reducing dependence on state support. According to the results of our research, the ISE Act does not bring about positive changes in the field of social services, and the expectations of CSOs-social service providers who have long been involved in shaping social policy-are unlikely to be met. Since the introduction of the ISE Act, only a small number of companies have registered, and case studies show that even long-standing CSO social service providers are hesitant to register or take advantage of the new legislation.
