Employment of people from developing countries - region latin americe in the Czech republic

Original language description

The aim of this paper is to analyse the current situation of the employment of Latino Americans in the Czech Republic and to come up with recommendations for the Czech employers how to deal in the best way with the management of their Latino employees. The theoretical part represents a literature review focused on defining developing countries of Latin America and presenting Czech statistics about the number of Latin Americans living in the Czech Republic together with the legal conditions of their employment. Last but not least, intercultural differences between Latin American countries and the Czech Republic presented by Hofstede Centre are introduced. The practical part is based on semi-structured interviews with twelve Latin American respondents who are employed in Czech companies. The first part of the interview is inspired by the R-STAR model for managing people, while the second part is based on questions about the cultural perception of Latino American employees in their Czech work. The results has shown that Latin Americans who come to work to the Czech Republic have professional skills and strong intrinsic motivation to perform their best in their job. However, it is necessary for the Czech employers to know how to stimulate their motivation and to provide them with convenient working conditions since their cultural perception of work may differ from the one of Czech employees. It is in the employer?s best interest to be informed about the variety of cultural backgrounds of his Latino employees as it can contribute to creation of a synergic corporate culture.
