The Rise or Decline of Craft Trades? Evidence from Czech Republic and Poland

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Entrepreneurial activity in the fi eld of craft professions is an integral part of national economies. The aim of the authors is to prepare an overview article, which would simultaneously compare selected business activities in the Czech Republic and Poland in the fi eld of craft trades with an emphasis on young people and their employability in the labour market. In line with the aim of the article, the authors identifi ed four research questions, which they answered based on the analysis of secondary data. They drew data from databases of statistical offi ces, ministries and associations. Data were processed using a descriptive statistics apparatus. In the Czech Republic, interest in the study of crafts has stagnated for a long time. In recent years, the number of graduates of craft apprenticeships has been growing. Crafts in the fi eld of mechanical and electrical engineering are preferred, e.g. car mechanic, repairman, mechanical locksmith, electrician. Decrease in the number of graduates is recorded in the food and most construction professions. After fi nishing the apprenticeship, graduates often leave their fi eld. In Poland, most companies operate in the fi eld of trade and repair of motor vehicles. Measured by the number of graduates, the predominant fi eld is the machinery industry, wellness professions and professions in the food industry. The interest among young people in the studied craft trades is declining in most fi elds, the fi eld of metal machining shows a growing trend. It is also necessary to confi rm the craftsman's expertise with a master craftsman’s certifi cation. It is desirable to expand the possibilities of educating pupils and students in a real work environment. It is important that mutual communication between the worlds of practice and education is functional and eff ective.
