abstract: 'Our research was designed to find out to what extent non-profit
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
organisations that identified their scope of activity as enhancing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment and training are able to fulfil their aims, can they increase
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment, especially the employment of groups that are disadvantaged
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in the labour market, what did they achieve in the field of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(re)integrating people to the labour market. We analysed existing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
statistics and also carried out a survey among non-profit organisations.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the information that we were able to gather and organise in a systematic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
way can be used to assess the effectivity of civil initiatives.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The number of non-profit organisations active in the field of enhancing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment was around 200 in the past few years, with a slightly
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
declining tendency in the number. The majority had the form of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
foundations and associations. An increasing number of these
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
organisations had employees, but they have fewer volunteers than other
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
non-profit organisations. The weight of Government financial support is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
outstandingly high in these organisations, compared to the average of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the non-profit sector. The total amount of government financial support
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to non-profit organisations active in the field of employment issues was
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
18 billion HUF The majority of the organisations targeted the employment
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of unemployed persons, their activities included training, job hunting
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
but also the employment of the target group by the organisation itself.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The target group is mainly private individuals, but some of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
organisations service other organisations or groups, among them minority
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
groups (old, young, families, Roma etc.). the activity of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
organisations is mostly limited to a settlement or a micro-region, few
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of them have a county, macro regional or national activity scope.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The demand for the services of these NGOs exceeds their capacity but
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
they are sooner or later able to help.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The major source of resources are the municipalities and their own
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
incomes but a large amount comes from the government or from ministries
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
directly and from the offerings of private individuals who can offer 1\%
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of their income tax to an NGO of their choice. The working conditions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and the infrastructure of these NGOs is at a medium level. they have to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cope with a shortage in resources, which they try to overcome by
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
continuous applications to various funds; they submit proposals 7 times
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
a year on the average.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
They consider their own activities to be successful and improving, the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
majority said that they were able to reach their goals, though they
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
would like to provide services to more people and they would like to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
improve the co-operation with local municipalities and government
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
organisations.'
