I would like to present the principles and main steps of transformation of social policy in Slovakia since democratic changes in 1990 and its current state and main challenges. I would like to present the transformation process in four main areas: employment policies, wage policies, family policies and social security. I would like to stress main principles as monopolization, democratization, pluralisation of sources and tools etc., main steps of the process as well as the changes of the process, evaluate current state in comparison with selected EU countries and present main challenges of social policy in Slovakia, especially long term unemployment, low fertility rate, pension system contingencies, excluded Roma villages, etc. I would like to point particular areas that could cause potential social risk or positive effects, as pension reform in 2004, Social Services Act, etc. |
